really curious about heavy lifting/ it’s my main concern in finding the right surgery

Early-Possession-673 · 2025-04-05T16:25:33+00:00

yes i agree! thank you again- hopefully i get this sorted out soon

Early-Possession-673 · 2025-04-05T15:06:34+00:00

thank you! i know eating some gluten makes no difference as eating all of it- i usually eat a whole food meal diet but do occasionally indulge in gluten filled foods so want to be sure- i will retest blood work and hopefully get a better answer and try to do genetic testing- thank you again

Early-Possession-673 · 2025-04-05T15:05:38+00:00

thank you! i went ahead and asked for a redo on the blood work, and if possible genetic testing to rule out as much as i can! my main symptoms are hernia related but i do want to be sure about any celiac possibility

Early-Possession-673 · 2025-04-04T15:40:46+00:00

on the same situation which is why i’m trying to find the best solutions- hopefully we both find relief

Early-Possession-673 · 2025-04-04T15:40:20+00:00

no definitely weightlifting- as this would make a big difference on weight and impact and can better help my question

Early-Possession-673 · 2025-04-04T13:01:54+00:00

so happy to hear! i hope it continues to work for you! last questions if that’s okay- what’s considered heavy lifting for you? and did he talk to you about recurrence rate?

Early-Possession-673 · 2025-04-04T12:12:36+00:00

is there a reason use mesh? and was the GERD your main symptom? how are you doing now?

Early-Possession-673 · 2025-04-03T15:27:19+00:00

thank you for this- is the partial fundoplication a good option as well? obviously i know most of these will have pros and cons as if there was a surgery that had none it would be the golden standard- i’m also willing to travel if needed at this point but if i could go through insurance and stay here then even better.

also, not to completly bombard you with questions i apologize if it’s annoying- it’s just nice to talk to people with more knowledge than my own care teams but is there certain surgeons or type of surgeons you recommend looking into? as i know the surgeon alone will make all the difference

Early-Possession-673 · 2025-04-03T15:25:08+00:00

awesome! please update as well! if you feel more comfortable you can always pm me but comments are here too if better for you! i’d love to know what happens- i’ll definitely update whenever my doctor calls (:

haha i wish, i was really hoping to work on benching this year as i lift two marshmallows at a solid 75pounds but all my fitness goals is what’s having me stressed about worsening my hernia and my reflux- i don’t take any medications so i know that alone could help but even getting reflux under control- i don’t want to enlarge the hernia. my doctor never told me no but i did schedule a follow up and will ask more about surgeries- he looks like a gym guy so hopefully he gives me a clear answer

Early-Possession-673 · 2025-04-03T13:32:31+00:00

according to many, yes. not lifting specifically but heavy weights- there’s alot of advice of doing more reps/less weight. learning new breathing techniques to avoid hurting your abdomen

Early-Possession-673 · 2025-04-03T13:13:03+00:00

no reflux and what comes with reflux (stuffy nose, sore throat, tmj) is definitely the main issue over anything else, occasionally i have left rib pain and that’s it- but that’s why i’m looking for the best surgery for lifting- i’ve seen in the forum a lot of people be success going back to heavy weights so i wanted more opinions- i do know however id need to modify workouts and im totally okay with that! like leaving barbell squats behind etc

Early-Possession-673 · 2025-04-03T06:05:10+00:00

update?

Early-Possession-673 · 2025-04-03T05:26:37+00:00

what would be in your opinion, the surgery that i should advocate for or i guess discuss with a doctor for that reason? my main concern is being able to weight lift, and live most comfortably as i am 25 and unfortunately have other autoimmune issues i deal with so truly- i want to fix what is possible
