Welcome to the group. Whenever someone in this group asks if anyone else has experienced what they're experiencing, 99.9% of the time the answer is yes.

I experienced what you're experiencing. What helped me was adding something to the Water. Some people like Mio. I prefer Crystal Light.

Good luck. You are not alone.

And although I haven't had my surgery yet my favorite flavor is strawberry kiwi and I have it packed in my duffle bag. I started a while ago putting things in when I've heard a hint I might find useful. So far I have chap stick, mio, Crystal lite GasX and Biotene in there.

I had surgery on 2/22/18. I had extreme gas pains on my shoulders. I took Gas x found no relief. What really worked and within the hour was tea of anis star. I made the tea 2 times a day.. it was a great spice of my liquid count and had gas relief instantly.

      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!
