Since I had the surgery 9 days ago, I am not dizzy and fainting, no more nausea.  No more pain.  I am on a liquid and purée diet.  I am not earring  lot cause I feel full easily.  I am glad I had the surgery.  I am off my most expensive meds.

      I had my stomach put back in place (it was twisted in my esophagus.  I had scar tissue removed.  I had a 9 cm hiatial hernia repaired with absorbing  mesh.  It was a 6 hour operation.  I had. 35% chance I wouldn’t make it .  I couldn’t live with all the symptoms I had.  I have no m[u]ore pain, no more dizziness and fainting, no more coughing, no more excessive gas, no more expensive medication, and no more anemia.  [/u]
