i’m really glad you asked this ... still unsure which surgery to have but i’m allergic to most pain meds so worried about not having nsaids as an option (one of the things i’m not allergic to)

I too get super bad cramps and have chronic pain i took gabapetin to turn down my sensitivity. As for cramps i decided 2 days a month was worth 28 days of being pain free and having more energy. I havent taken anything for pain in 7 months and no more gabapetin 4 wks post op now.

I haven't had any since 2 weeks post op..not even a Migraine. I had my period early wich is common with abdominal surgery and the cramps were very mild. Now it is late but usually i get cramps before it starts...hoping those are gone..

My surgeon just told me this week I could take Celebrex for my arthritis as long as I take omeprazole. I am one year out from RNY.


I had a sudden flare up of migrating joint pain just out of the blue and was told I could take Celebrex as well and because its gentle on the stomach not even PPI needed?

I am 1 yr post op RNY. It’s frustrating there are so many conflicting answers.....

      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!
