This has been a long time coming and I’ve unfortunately been dealing with this issue since Christmas of last year. I’ve had chronic acid reflux since I was a baby, and I had an operation called a Nissen fundoplication when I was only 9 years old. This is where they take stomach tissue tie it around your esophagus to prevent stomach acid coming up your esophagus constantly. I had a 360° wrap done back in 2004. During my operation tomorrow, they will be undoing my intact Nissen and reducing it to a 270° wrap, which should remove the paraesophageal hernia I have (I’ve essentially outgrown my previous operation). After that procedure is done, they will be repairing the sliding hiatal hernia I have, which is what’s causing pain when I do certain Ventriloquim skills (muffled voice & echoing - you have to REALLY tighten your diaphragm when doing those tricks). Needless to say, I’m excited to finally start feeling better, but I am also very nervous for this procedure. Luckily, most of this is being done laparoscopically, so the recovery time should be a minimal. 🤞 Wish me luck! I’m very excited to be on the road to recovery, and I am in VERY good hands with the surgical team that’s working on me. #ventriloquist #comedy #surgery #prep less
