Yesterday was surgery. He fixed a hiatal hernia that I didn’t know I even had. Sore this morning, especially when using the incentive spirometer. Took my first drink this morning and it was so good.

My doc fixed the same hernia in me, and I woke up with the most excruciating back pain from it. One of the resident docs said the hernia repair wasn’t what was causing my pain, but couldn’t give me a better answer as to what it was, and it was exactly in the middle of my back where my diaphragm runs.

My pain is in center of my chest and back. Same thing as you, I’m almost certain it’s the hernia repair.

Mine took about three days to start easing up too. Walking def helps, I was asking to go for a walk about every hour from as soon as I was allowed to. Now I’m home three days, and not walking anywhere near as much (I live in Minnesota, it’s pretty brisk outside). My friend is taking me out in an hour or so, so I can get some walking done indoors 😃

      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!
