Has anyone had surgery for a hiatal hernia?

My stomach was up in my chest, interfering w/ my lungs and heart. I had a fundoplication. They wrap the top of your stomach around your esophagus. All done w/ robots. It's not going anywhere.
I don't know what a toupet 270 is, but I'll look it up.
Anyway, I lost almost 40 pounds, because my stomach is smaller. And I've maintained it. The bad part is that my stomach is now very sensitive. Diarrhea.
But everybody's different. I already had some gastroparesis. I keep a food diary.

From what I've read, the toupet type of fundoplication might be better. Less radical. I'm in a situation now where I never know when my stomach is going to do a dump. Was it the raisins, or the embarrassment?
