Hello, I’m brand new to this group and learning still how to navigate his page. I had nissen surgery, no mesh, loose wrap for 8.5 cm para esophageal hh June 2024. My recovery had been a very long process. My surgeon did tell me recovery is in stages and to have patience. Recovery can take up to a year to feel normal. I have days I feel great and days I feel like I hit a brick wall. I have also battled with IBS/ SIBO which started 4 months after my surgery. I have been on the low fod map and recently struggling with introducing in new foods. My GI Dr had ordered an abdominal Xray which was normal and I’m going to do another SIBO breathe test. Recovery has been challenging but I feel so much better with no more hernia issues or acid reflux. The microbiome changes dramatically for many people which contributes to many aches and pains. Finding the right support is important as well. Currently I’m looking for good tips for an online dietician etc. I was working with a nutritionist who recently retired. I joined this group with hopes to find good tips and information regarding post op digestive health.
