I am so sore in my stomach which I’m sure it’s expected but were you guys in pain even when you yawned or sat up, in your stomach?

So i am in pain still! First it was in the hospital 24 gas pain on my left side. Then I got home and maybe couple days later I developed the same pain you are describing but mine is everything I do besides breathe it is sharp pain. I seen my surgeon and he states that he stitched up 3 layers of muscle and I must of tore one layer of stitches and that is what is causing the AWFUL pain. But the only thing to do is take pain meds and it goes away in 2wks (For me that is)based off my healing time. It will only get better! He stated that is is like the flick of a switch it goes right away not like it taking 2 to 3 days before you feel the pain completely gone. So I guess that is the plus I am looking forward too!

Yes, very common. I had to take pain pills off and on for the first week or so. Anything that increases pressure in your abdomen is going to hurt

Tylenol the pill form or liquid? My surgeon gave me script for oxy but I don't want to take it.

Capsules, I put in my throat then sip it down. You can break it up. I only took 1. I'm feeling better already. Took shower .

      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!
