Help, Jachut, are you out there?

Mimi,

So sorry about your bad news. I sure hope things right themselves for you. I've read where a lot of times, even if there is a slip, an unfill and liquid diet can correct it. Do they have you on liquids now?

I was thinking of you yesterday. I had to go to my doc and have part of my last fill removed. Saturday when I tried to take my medicine the first pill got stuck and came back up. Then I tried to eat lunch and of course the first bite got stuck and came back up. By Sat night I couldn't even drink water! It was awful. I was almost ready to try the emergency room, but didn't trust those docs not to mess up my band. I decided to rest it, like you did, and Sunday morning I managed get some hot coffee down and chicken broth and NOTHING ELSE so I decided to see my doc on Monday. They took .2cc out of the .3cc he put in Fri the 31st. I'm feeling MUCH better now.

So they have me on 3 days liquids, 3 days of mushies and then solid food. I'll be curious to see what happens on the scales. According to their scales I've lost 2 pounds since the 31st when I was there last. Hard to believe since I had only chicken broth for 2 days! WTH?

Keep us posted on how you are feeling and I hope for a speedy recovery.

      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!
