Tight Throat



Recommended Posts

:help: I have been having this really tight feeling in my throat, NOT my chest but right above on my lower throat part. I have NO restriction at all, I can eat like a normal person, maybe even more...

Sometimes it is tighter then other times, when it gets really really tight my saliva glands go crazy, and it hurts really bad. I have had heart burn in the past but since the band I have not had any symptoms. I dont know if this is Acid Reflux I am feeling (was told heart burn and acid reflux are diffrent)..

What are your ideas on it??? Should I call my Dr.?

Thanks for your help

Could you have slipped? I for sure would call my doctor just to cover all the avenues. Eat soft or mushies until you can speak w/them & let us know aht they said. I hope you feel better soon.

When are you getting this tight feeling? Is it while eating? Or right after eating? This is the feeling I get when I eat too much. If it is at other times, then yu need to see you doctor..IMO

      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.
