Tomorrow is the big day! All I keep thinking is at this time tomorrow I’ll be a post-op girl. My nerves are in high gear though. I’m so nervous that something will happen at the last minute like all of a sudden I get symptoms of the bug going around where I teach or the doctor won’t like the number on the scale before surgery. I don’t know. I’m just all over the place. Of all things to be scared of from this surgery, I’m freaking out about the IV. [emoji23]

My bag is packed, and I’m ready! I’ll stop with the rambling now.[emoji23]

Good luck, I am 1 week post op and feeling pretty good. The worst pain was right after I went to the room.. it wasn't the incision pain, but from the gas. I got up and walked 20 mins after I went to the room and that really helped. I was doing great soon afterward. This has not been that bad.. I had 3 c sections and a Tummy Tuck and this has been the easiest surgery I have ever had. Prayers for you and a quick recovery.

Thanks for your kind words! I’m so glad you are doing so well. I heard the gas is awful.

My surgery will be sometime in December, and like you, it's not everything I have to do that has me it the needles that I'm terrified of. Do what I do, close your eyes tell the nurse just get it done done count down or say anything just get it in. I truly helps

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
