Hey guys
I'm on the other side!!!
I'm still pretty dopey but I do have a quick question
My surgery went well, but the mentioned they also repaired a hernia? I think it starred with a h?
I haven't seenu doctor yet and the nurse said it was common, but I want to know more!
Any ideas or info? Will this affect my recovery? I tried to research myself but my loopy brain couldn't focus. I actually dozed off twice writing this!haha

Welcome aboard! I hope you have a quick and easy recovery.
To answer you question, having it repaired is a good thing and should have no impact at all on your recovery. They fixed one I didn't know I had -- if they hadn't told me they fixed it, I would never have known. If you've had heartburn/reflux, it should be a lot less now that your hernia was repaired.

Congratulations to you!! I was sleeved last wed. I also had a hiatal hernia, I guess bigger than expected. My surgeon told my husband that he thinks my asthma will be better with that repaired. It is the only thing giving me pain at 6 days out (well I think so, because I think it was repaired right near my largest incision where they remove the stomach) but it is managable pain. You may want to ask if wearing anything like a compression belt could help feel like it holds it in, depending upon the size of it.
Congrats and welcome to the loser s bench:)
