- I just had the TIF and hiatal hernia surgery yesterday (7.20.21). Today is 7.21.21. I talk about how the surgery went, what I feel like, pain levels, and diet going forward
Thank you for sharing I'll be in surgery Friday 12 ,2024 This video has made me more comfortable about these procedures.
How did it go ??
@@richoffpain01 it went ok still having swallowing issues but getting better ty for asking
I`m scheduled for hiatal hernia surgery Monday July 15th, 2024.
How are you feeling now is it gone for good can you please explain to me I want to go as well
I had a fundoplication this week. I was in a right state the following day lol, well done making a video!!
Thanks for sharing this video, I have a large hiatal hernia that pushed most of my stomach into my chest, I hope they can fix it. 😊
Oh dude i have a hital hernia its scary.
I dont know how i ended up like this but im happy your doing well my friend
I'm going to have hiatial hernia surgery in a few months (after Thanksgiving and Christmas). Your video helps with my concerns about pain afterward. The surgeon just says she'll send me home with pain medication. That doesn't answer my question. Reading between the lines, I take it as there will be considerable pain. Your video is comforting. Thank you.
Glad to help. Like I said, I'm a baby and I didn't have much pain. Zero pain meds. Just Tylenol and not for long. Good luck!!!!
I’m having all that done too in January
@@marktiffanyroberts6290 Good luck! It'll be wonderful when it's all done
Your video came up on my feed, because last year I searched the internet high and low for TIF procedure. I had the procedure a little over one year ago. I'm always bloated. I feel even more uncomfortable now. The acid reflux is gone, but no amount of gas-X stops the bloating. I've never burped in my life and it's 24-7. I hope that you're not having this issue.
So sorry! I did have that issue (not able to burp and bloating) initially but it went away and I'm able to burp again. It took a few weeks but i "learned" to burp again, just was a bit differently. That was my fear with Nissen in that burning might not be be possible any longer after the procedure...
Overall I am doing well and feel like my normal self. Have you spoken with doctors on why the bloating? Hope you find some relief. I know it's hard and you have a procedure hoping to get better and when it doesn't work...AWFUL!
Hi Frank. Thanks for making this video. I know it's hard when you are not feeling well.
good luck and the first week will be horrible 😢 Best and fast recovery
Thank you for sharing your experiences with Hiatal hernia surgery. I feel braver already:)
I'm having hiatal hernia and fundoplication.
The internal medicne doctor said about 70% of my stomach is in my chest cavity.
So I'll be glad to get it taken care of.
Luckily I have a desk job so I'm hoping I won't miss too much work
@seanmccormick3270 WOW! 70%. Crazy. My little 3cm hernia was nothing then.
All the best to you. Good luck going forward!
I had a inguinal hernia with open surgery i was walking within 2 hours and went home after 6 hours British NHS is the best in the world
So I hear! Wish our awful medical system would improve but doubt it ever will
Thanks for sharing! Hope all is well.
Thanks, Frank. I will be doing this soon.
Good luck!!!!
Same HH repair and TIF?
God loves you and so do I take it easy on yourself and don't lift nothing to hard to pick up and keep eating soft foods I have to and you will get better I did
Thank you! Hope you are doing well! 2022
I would like to reassure anyone going for HH repair by keyhole surgery that it is 95% safer than open surgery(Thorocotomy). I have had four Thorocotomys within 3 years in the 1990s and i am still living today at 66years old reflux free.
I've had a hurnia once now I have onather one and I wish I would have followed the dr diet I just started doing it today now I'm scard I have 3 months befor the surgury but frist there talking about doing a upper gi
My pain is horrible. Glad u r not having thatmuch
The procedure caused you pain? How long did it last? Are you ok now?
I’m trying to get the surgery but there giving me so many obstacles
Sorry to hear that!
Good. Im happy 4 you that everything went well. Which state do you live in?
Frank, how are you doing now? Hope you're doing well.
May I ask how things are going? Is the hernia still gone and did you have trouble belching for a while?
Going well. Pretty normal at this point. I did have trouble with belching but that has gone away. All is pretty normal. 😁
Do you need to use ppis??@@frank_umm
Why not just fast for a week after the surgery.?
Hi frank, how are you now, after the surgery . Your hiatal hernia symptoms had gone completely. And are you still following diet restriction yet.
Please reply, I also have hh. Wanted to go for surgery
After doing the surgery and after your recovery were you able to come back to your normal eating habits
How are you doing in 2022? I hope you feel better!
Good! Thanks! See newest videos for recap (if you'd like) for last 365 days or so.
Hi Frank . Hope you are ok .
Did this TIF work well after all those months ?
See my latest video. I'm doing pretty well.
@@frank_umm what state are u in Atlanta they won’t repair mines because they say it’s. Small sliding hernia
@@kimsdailylife I'm in Texas I had a small sliding hiatal hernia and I had the TIF procedure. I honestly hate it a year later. I'm always bloated now.
Hey! I had the C TIF and im 5 months post op! Do you think I should be working out shoulders with 30lb dumbells?
Talk with your doc to be sure. But...at 5 months out, I was lifting that + . 52 lb. dumbbells actually. Which is the heaviest I have. I NEVER, NEVER did anything like squats or deadlifts or anything like that with that heavy a weight though. Only thing I did that heavy was chest press on the floor. And...very, very careful about how I got the weight up to my chest. (Takes an unusual technique to get through weights where I needed them). Talk to your doc. Just because I did it doesn't mean u should. I am no doc so cannot advise you on what you can or cannot do
@@frank_umm I only had a 2 cm hernia repair if that might make it safer for me? What about 20 lb dumbells??
I'm going to have this done..I'm kinda nervous..am I gonna go home after or am I gonna have to stay in hospital..that's what worries me
I am sure that will depend, but from what I understand and was the case for me, they want you to stay overnight for observation to make sure that everything is okay. I did not want to stay in the hospital myself but if it is what they need to do and part of the process...it is what it is. It felt relatively quick as well. Not fun, but again, is what it is
How is open surgery with mesh ?
I will have it in few days .
Sorry. I have no clue.
how is a hiatal hernia repair and tif possible together? I was told that if you have a hiatal hernia, I need to have a Nissan. I really want the tif though. can someone please explain this?
You'll have to ask your doc. I don't know the specifics, but, I most certainly had a TIF and hiatal hernia repair. 2 surgeons. The 1st doc did the hernia repair and the 2nd did the TIF which he specialized in. One of us is getting misinformation. Either way, my procedure/surgery was done July 21 and I have felt great since that procedure and medications they put me on. I'd do it again if I had to. I also did NOT want the Nissen for various reasons, nor the linx. I found the doc in my city who did the TIF and got it done. Although I had a hernia, my understanding is that you can have the TIF without hiatal hernia or hiatal hernia repair without a TIF. I'm not a doc so don't know for sure but getting multiple opinions like I did was very worth it. One doc I saw was NOT great and said stay on PPI forever despite risks or do Linx. I chose neither and went to another doc. There are other options...at least for me.
@@frank_umm Thanks for your detailed answer. Do you workout? I was wondering if small weight lifting is okay after youre healed. I heard doctors say you gotta stay below 50 lbs with the Nissen because extremely heavy weight can mess up the sutures. I wonder wondering if it is different for TIF since it doesnt involve sutures. Did you doc mention this? And lastly, are you completely acid free these days? I am assuming u dont take PPI anymore
@zendalet1796 I've done various videos specifically on medications, exercise, etc. that explain. Yes, I can and do lift weights. I stay away from very heavy stuff, not because docs said but because I choose too. Not willing to risk it. I did wait 6 weeks post surgery to exercise as docs recommended. I took PPIs only in very beginning. No more than a month or 2. Didn't want side effects. I have videos on this specifically, too.
@zendalet1796 Just did an update video too. I am acid free. Feel very normal
@@frank_umm Thanks bro. Glad it has worked out for you.
Question,
Right after your surgery.. did you throw up? Cause I know patients throw up right after waking up after their surgery.
If you didn't throw up, did the hospital give you anti nausea medications?
No. Only reason I got nauseated was moving around a bit. Other than that, I was fine. My understanding is that they REALLY, REALLY do not want u to throw up either. Not after this procedure. Try not to cough, etc. Anything that could pull apart the plastic stitches.
@@frank_umm cool. Thanks for all the valuable information in all your videos.
I really hope everything is much better in your health
I'm getting a nissen fonduplication plus the hiatal hernia repair.
I already underwent
PH impedance 24 HR. And an esophageal manometry test
I'm on my final procedure called "PH bravo". After that, it will be surgery day
Oh no I thought something like this would be good for me because I know you throw up from this stuff
How you feel now?
I’m getting surgery tomorrow I’m nervous
Good luck
How was it Tony?
i hope you're doing well!
Hi
I'm from India
I'm suffering from this last 2 year
My question is after surgery
How much time to recover to do all my word as like running and other
Because I'm runner so it's to important for me
Please reply 🙏🙏🙏🙏
It can depend on the person. Is assume you might be back to running a few weeks-months after surgery. My 'restrictions' were gone 6 weeks post surgery. It'll depend on you and your doc
How long was recovery?
6 weeks for restrictions on food and diet. Pretty standard from what I understand. I took longer for other reasons but diet and exercise restrictions and all others were 6 weeks.
@@frank_umm how long can I go back to work
Hi, did you have trouble breathing with Hiatal Hernia? If so did the breathing get better after?
Not that I noticed. I do have BAD anxiety though so it is possible that i thought breathing issues were anxiety and were instead the HH. I understand the 2 can be correlated too
@@frank_umm thank you for responding. I’m glad surgery went well.
I also need the surgery but I have to wait for my gall bladder recovery.
Get well soon
