feeling of something in throat



Recommended Posts

Hey guys I woke to a feeling of something in my throat. Its been like this all day, i am on mushies, banded 4/13/11, everything goes down, never threw up.

Let me know if anyone has had this and if so let me know what caused it. I feel some heartburn but didnt wake up with heartburn. Thanks

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.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
