If you're not better by morning, go ahead and call your doc. Or if you get worse by then. Esp if you're not getting enough Water in and/or vomitting. I pray it's just after-effects of the anesthesia, but still, nothing to linger on with, so be safe and it won't hurt to call.

If you are still taking you pain meds they can really mess up your stomach. (Mine did today.) After being off them a day or two, it should improve.

I do too! It can be discouraging and upsetting not knowing what is going on after this type of surgery. I'm so glad you're feeling better today!!!

Talk about bizarre! I was banded on 5/20 and exactly 8 days after I had a case of nausea too! Felt fine the next day. Couldn't figure out what I had eaten that made me sick. Now I'm wondering if it wasn't what I ate at all! What's the significance of 8 days, I wonder?

Don't know about you guys, but you might be running a slight fever from the surgery and drinking Protein Shakes made with milk. The two did not agree with me!

I felt amazing after surgery all day thursday, and even all day friday. It wasn't until sometime Saturday afternoon I was struck with the most intense nausea, dizzyness, and lightheadedness ever!! I could barely move and I kept thinking, WHAT DID I DO TO MYSELF!!!!!!! I'm glad your starting to feel better too!!!!!

      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!
