I hate it when people post just to post.....

Yes. But just a little. And afterwards, blessed relieve from that feeling that a cat is sitting on your chest.

I can't wait to get rid of that feeling...always feels like something is stuck in my throat. Hate it!

It's Saturday morning - yeah! I've got to hit the gym before the Santa Claus parade - I still cannot accept the parade before Dec 1, but alas I'm not ruler of the city. So, gotta get to the gym and home before they put up the street roadblocks and corral me!

Okay, what blows my mind is that I was diagnosed with a hiatal hernia about 6 years ago when I was having issues (turned out to be my gall bladder which needed an emergency removal), but when I did the barium swallow for this procedure, it showed no hernia! And that just can't be right because I have been going through issues again of issues when I swallow, like it gets stuck and then suddenly releases after a period of time. :cool:

What scares me is the doctor not really finding anything, and then I get banded and continue to have problems with swallowing.

Beth, once they're in you they'll be able to see if you have a hiatal hernia. You should mention it to your doctor when he comes to see you before the surgery. Most doctors pop in and say hello to you before you go under. If you don't see your doctor, you can tell your nurse and ask her/him to mention it to your doctor.

Shovelling break - mitts are on the fireplace drying, coffee is perking, breathing is easing up. Catch up on the posts (very few on this sunday morning) then back outside. Think it's time to put away the patio furniture and toss the plants?

      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!
