Today I’m 15 days post op. Supposed to move up to purée. (No chance in heck I’m trying) every single thing I put in my mouth feels like it just sits in my esophagus and I belch until I vomit it up. Doesn’t matter what it is. Water broth shakes, sugar free popsicles, power aide zero. 🤮😩 plz tell me this won’t be the rest of my life? I literally haven’t kept anything down in 3 days. Not that I’m hungry but I know I need it.

I’ll try that. I saw the physical therapist at work yesterday after noon. He said every single rib on my lift side was out of place. He would guess happened in surgery them pulling and pushing me around and laying flat on the surgery table. He put them back. Instant relief of pain! When I set up it was like a rush (I can only describe it as a flush) everything suck felt like it went straight down! He said they were out so badly that they might have been pressing on my esophagus and making me have trouble swallowing. It’s been about 18 yrs now without vomiting. Although I still feel like my throat is full after every drink or bite. And I did froth several times today. I do feel much better! Thank u everyone.

I’ve only been sipping. Like two sips to swallow a spoon full. I emailed the surgeon and she didn’t seem to concerned that’s why I was reaching out. If it’s something I just gotta man up and get through then I will but I gotta know this won’t be a forever feeling.
