Can someone help me!!!

Hello I've got a pain in my throat and it keeps coming up then going back down.. I haven't been sick or bought anything up but I've had it for a couple days now.. I'm a bit worried to what it could be??? It seems to have started after I ate some white bread I'm 13 days post op..( I realise I'm not supposed to have bread but I had a weak moment!! ) and I chewed and chewed till it turn soggy and mushy.. Any ideas to what this could be then please comment, thanks x

It's not the fact it was specifically bread, it's the fact I highly doubt you're supposed to have bread or anything more than maybe liquids or mushies at only 13 days post op.

Btw, chewing food to mush does not count. If it's not the consistency of baby food before it hits your mouth then it's not considered mushy food post diet acceptable.

Your stomach has been manipulated and sutured. It's wounded and needs time to heal. It's no wonder you're having this problem because you're not giving that swelling time to resolve itself.

Get back on your post op diet, follow it strictly, and tell your doctor exactly what you did and the result after. Let him make sure you didn't do any damage.

Best wishes.

Where in your throat? If it has anything to do with the band, it would happen around your sternum area and not your neck area?

bread would have disolved by now so you might want to call your doc?

Try liquid motrin to help with swelling and just do hot liquids until it stops hurting. Calling your doc wouldn't hurt either.
