Abt 4 mo out... difficulty swallowing day after overeating



Recommended Posts

I had a 4oz (weight) yellowfin tuna steak last night for dinner. I have eaten these before with no problem. I overcooked it last night though, and when I was done it felt like there was a rock in my stomach. This was about 715 last night.

I was able to drink a Protein Shake at 9 last night that went down, but it felt like it was "going around" the rock.

This morning I woke up with gas pain, rock feeling, and a little difficulty swallowing. A workout (with much farting), three GAS-X strips, two bottles of Water, and Breakfast (one egg two turkey sausage links) has made the rock feeling better but the swallowing discomfort is still there.

Did I stretch the upper part of my stomach and now it is mad at me? I brought soft food for lunch to work to give my tummy a break.

On a scale of 1-10 the difficulty swallowing is about a 3.

Any advice?

Great question! Sorry no advice. I am out if the country with girlfriends and have had similar issues. Wish I had some shakes with me. I feel icky and can't wait to get back home to my normal routine!!

My bet is it just made your tummy swollen a bit. You are right to bring soft foods to work today. Do something soft for dinner too and just give your tummy a break today. If it gets worse, a quick call to the doctor doesn't hurt. Hope it goes away quickly for you

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
