After being Stuck

[Hudgie 10]

Does your stomach swell? I am going in tomorrow, thank goodness; but now I can't really get anything down with any thickness. Protein Shakes are going, but cream Soup is a 'no-go'. broth went. I got my band on March 11. There was no fill! What's the prob, bob?

Mine gets really irritated after a stuck episode. I drink Water and Clear Liquids for 24 hours. Tried a regular Breakfast this morning after a nasty episode last night and it was a no go. But tonight, I'm eating some spaghetti sqaush very slowly and I'm okay. I took some children's ibuprofen to help with the swelling. So far so good.

They may have given you a fill at the time of placing it. I know that if I had a second fill, I would never make it. Glad you are going in.

I appreciate the comments. Makes me feel like I'm not on an island. I'll tell them tomorrow, and see what they say.

Did you blend or strain your cream Soups? I know that a lot of them have pieces of things like chicken, broccoli, mushrooms etc.

A bad stuck can really aggravate your stoma, it can take sometime on liquids until the swelling goes down.

Your Dr is the best one to advice you on what to do.

Good luck
