This morning I went to Breakfast with my wife and had 1 scrambled egg and tolerated that well. I tried a few small bites of wheat toast with butter, but stopped when my stomach started to get angry with me. Also did fine with 1/2 a cup of black coffee. All of that was about 3 hours ago and I’m not hungry yet.

Hi December Sleevers!

I was wondering if anyone has burning pain in left incision? 9 days post op.

I have been doing more bending, walking? House chores Not to excess ?

Not sure what to do ? I guess call Dr if it gets worse. No oozing or fever.

Thanks for any help.

You are probably just doing too much. Try to kick back and relax with a heating pad. At that stage post op my incisions were sore too.

I’ll give that a try. Thank you [emoji4]


Mine also was burning, it kind of went away then flared up again at about 2 weeks out, but I'm about 3 1/2 weeks out and its gone now. I switched between ice and a heating pad. Hope it goes away soon!

I never had burning pain, but it was painful every time I moved from whatever position I was in and then the pain would go away. I think burning pain was one of the conditions where I was supposed to call my surgeon’s office.

Yes. Warm beverages are far easier for me and Water with lemon is a bit better than plain water (I use true lemon powder).

Room temperature Water goes down easiest. The Orange Crush flavor packets help sometimes; sometimes I just want plain water.

I’m just starting post op phase 2 in the next few days. I’m so excited for an egg! Haha. Sleeved 12/19/17.

I’m going to an all day conference in a week. I have no idea what will be served for lunch but it’s just pretty much going to be one choice. So, I know I most likely just need to bring my own food. What travels well that I could easily carry around with me and eat for lunch but still feel part of eating lunch with the group?

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      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?
