Hi , I had a hiatus hernia ( sliding) and am in recovery (4th month) after key hole surgery for repair to the hernia. I had the hiatus hernia for the 10 years and suffered all of your mentioned symptoms. It got to the point where I was getting hard stomach pains ( felt like I was punched in the stomach) and felt like I wanted to vomit. I took over my life and I was afraid of eating so many foods.
Hello, my husband had part of his colon removed about 8 years ago due to diverticulitis. He had a colostomy bag for about a year after the surgery. After his second surgery to remove the colostomy, the left side of his stomach is rounder and bigger than the right side. He doesn't have any discomfot and his bowel movements are normal, but as I see the left side of his stonach getting larger, I am getting more and more concerned.
I had a large hematoma right after surgery and the tenderness and pain took several weeks before they went away.... anyways, sometimes i feel a similar symptom to when I was having gallbladder attacks... the attacks happened in the middle of my abdomen where my stomach is... as a matter of fact when I first began going to the docs about the pain in my third trimester they just told me to take pepcid. This is not a burning sensation.. it's just umcomfortable....
Anyway my question is has anyone had a surgery other than the nissen fundo to repair the hernia. I am interested in having mine fixed but do NOT want my stomach wrapped around my esophagus. I'd like for a surgeon to just go in and pull the stomach to its proper position and sew up the hole in the diaphram essentially returning everything to its natural order.
I just had a hernia repair 4 days ago. The incision is great and there is hardly any pain, but 2 days after surgery I am experiencing constant stomach pain, it doesn't go away. It feels like hunger pangs. I never experienced this before in my life, so I am pointing the finger at something with the surgery. I don't know what, but either the anesthetic or something that I am not aware of with the surgery. Does anyone have any answers?
I continued to vomit up till the day of my surgery. After this type of surgery you can NO LONGER vomit....ever. Hoped it was the problem and fixed, several weeks after my surgery I began to have the most unbearable paid in my stomach and have figured out that it is my body wanting to throw up and I can't. I have severe nausia after ANYTHING goes into my belly and then the pain begins. I have lost over 40 pounds in a year. I cannot afford to loose another pound 5'6 and 108 lbs.
Has anyone gotten the bubbly gurgling feeling in their stomach after eating or drinking anything? I'm wondering what is causing this. I already have plans to have my gb removed due to stones, but I am asking because the surgeon and other docs feel there is something more going on, as my labs and symptoms/location of pain seem to indicate. Pancreas is likely involved and I do have a hiatal hernia. White blood cells & pancreatic enzymes are elevated.
Hi My sister has just had surgery for a hiatus hernia (360 degree wrap) but is very distressed as no-one (even the hospital) seems to be able to tell her about an aftercare. i.e Diet, what she should be eating after however many days and what to expect etc. When will she be able to do normal things etc.. Can anyone help please,.....
It has been almost a year since my gallbladder surgery. Prior to the surgery I had pain that did not fit neatly into the diagnosis of a gallbladder problem. My ultrasound did show one small stone, however the pain did not come and go. I had the surgery, then continued to get worse! It has been a year now. I have had an upper and lower GI. Upper showed that I have upper Hiatus hernia, lower showed that I was completely healthy and normal.

I had some pain after hernia surgery. After the post op exam I went home thinking everything was normal. When my husband and I had intercourse for the first time I thought I was going to die. Went to urgent care, they sent me to the ER of the hospital where I had the surgery. Met a nurse there that said she has a hernia and has had it for 20 years and won't get it fixed, I asked her where the hell she was before I had my surgery.
My surgeon tells me he will insert a tube throught the stomach to hold it in place after my hiatal hernia surgery. Is this normal and how will it be removed? He said it would stay in about 2 wks. He also said it would not be a feeding tube, just something to hold the stomach in place. Anyone ever had this done?
I intend on seeing a doctor today for pain in my upper stomach/ chest area and for esophagus discomfort. I initially thought I had pulled muscles in that area. I started hatha yoga at least 2 months ago and there is a posture that is done called the 'bundhas'. Its where you have exhaled all breath and then pull in and lift the stomach muscles, lifting the diaphragm and them pulling the chest muscles in also, holding for some seconds and then releasing the breath.
just watch,,i know you mentioned its small,but if you ever experience prolonged pressure,or pain in any way,have it checked quickly,as you could get what they call a strangulated hernia,where the stomach actualy gets up in the hernia,and gets stuck,and pinched in there,and this can cause that part of the stomach to loose blood and get infection,and cause all kinds of problems to you,,,very serious illness can result.
