I don't know if fluro is a must. But I see Cyndi Rice at Health and Wellness in Pocatello. She works closely with Ortiz; she had her surgery with Ortiz and so did I. She charges $175 but doesn't use flouro.

Thank you so much. There is a Dr Davis in Blackfoot at Bingham Medical Center and Idaho falls of Pocotello would be perfect for me the only other is in Salt Lake city 5 hours away.... I am just afraid without floro cause I have heard such nightmares about Dr. poking holes in the tubes of the ports.... and leakage and I just freak out. Needles scare me. Thank you for your replies... I will check it all out. Hanna

      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.

      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!
