Wondering if anyone else had a hiatal hernia that was either repaired or was not during their gastric bypass procedure. I’ll be having mine repaired when my surgery takes place. If you have experienced this, did it make recovery any more difficult?

Had mine repaired at the time of my bypass surgery. No problems and no, it did not make my recovery any more difficult.

I had a hiatal hernia fixed during my RNY. Did it make my recovery harder?

I don't really know as I have nothing to which to compare it.

I wonder what your Doc would say? After all, your Doc has patients both with and without Hiatal hernias so would have a basis of comparison.

Recovery is a personal adventure that we all experience differently. Welcome to your adventure.
