Does it feel like reflux? If it continues, give your Dr. a call on Monday unless it is really bad.

I sometimes feel like something is caught in my throat when I eat too fast. But it seems like stuff shouldn't be backed up like that if you're just eating mushies. I know you're not suppose to drink when you eat but my doc told me it was ok to sip if I needed to rinse something down or if I was out and just wanted to feel like I'm having a normal meal with everyone else. So that's what I do when I get that feeling like something is in my throat. I just take a quick sip to rinse whatever it is. Not sure this is what's happening to you but in case it helps.

Hey guys following up for others who may go through this. I went to the doc did a barium absolutely nothing wrong there. This is sensitivity to 1) moving to mushies, 2) eating mushies to quickly, or 3) still swollen from surgery. I am only 2 weeks out today. It could have been a combination of all.

Anyone doc said it will pass and I am happy to say it has. All you will need to do is drink warm liquids. I did teas all day when I got back from doc and I don't feel that issue anymore.

Don't forget that they stick a tube down your throat in surgery.

A while ater my surgery, i started to get a choking feeling or something caught in my throat feeling at all times of the day. food wasn't what triggered this feeling because sometimes it would wake me up in the middle of the night 6-7hours after I ate.

I asked my doctor and he explained my throat was just sore from surgery and it would take some time. It wa finally a month post op I believe when it finally went away. Not a fun feeling.

Hope things are better.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
