Yeah I've heard of people doing that, I just want to find something that actually works because I really don't want a tuck.

pain when eating and vomiting stomach bile
KarissaKhaos replied to TamaraS's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
You sound exactly like I did a week ago, but I ended up finding an acid reducer that works and got an endoscopy. They ended up dilating my esophagus and poor pain is gone when I eat. You might have tightening around the opening to your sleeve. As for the bile, as for actigall, it's a prescription to decrease the amount of bile produced and prevents gallstones. Good luck! -

They ended up doing an endoscopy and dilating my esophagus a little, I feel so much better and have been able to eat without discomfort -

Thank you Jersey

Has anyone here had it? It was confirmed that I have a narrowing of the distal portion of my esophagus. My endoscopy is this morning at 8 and I'm a nervous wreck. I can't sleep and I'm worrying too much. If it's not as scary as it sounds can someone please calm my nerves? What can I expect?

I do at times too, but I think most of the problem is I don't get a full sensation.

Have any of you experienced issues with taste? I seem to dislike the taste of anything I eat, especially sugary things(which is good), but it is a little disappointig because nothing tastes good(except for fruit).

If only each doctor were on the same page, it seems like one doctor tells you this is ok and the other says absolutely not.
-
Yep I did fine, I'm still sleepy from the anesthesia but I'm happy that I haven't had any discomfort eating today!
-
So they ended up finding nothing, told me I had a stricture but then they didn't find one, so the scope ended up stretching my esophagus a little and my discomfort is gone. Glad it wasn't as bad as they thought.

Thank you Aussie

You have me feeling so much better right now, you sounded exactly like I do now. I was recently told that I have a stricture, it's excruciating to eat and I want to feel normal again. It's hit me so bad that I've sunk into a depression, I very rarely get out of bed and I'm in a funk because I don't feel normal. I'm glad you're doing better. -
I'm more worried about afterwards, I've read articles that say that it's almost certain that vomiting and nausea occur after the procedure and I'm already miserable enough so I don't want to deal with that either.

Reactive vs Proactive Thinking, Action & Responses

If calling people idiots and telling them they should be ashamed of themselves is tough love in your eyes, then I really hope you're not a parent. -
Pain when i swallow anything
KarissaKhaos replied to jerilo10's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
It's normal, I had that for the first few weeks. -
Well "grown-up" people wouldn't be as rude and snobby as many are on here, it's a support forum keep that in mind.
