Did/do anyone feel like there is something stuck in yor throat



Recommended Posts

Im 10 days out and my throat feels like something is stuck in the back of it. I feel it all the time. It does not seem to contrict my Fluid intake although it feels like its drying up because of my breathing so I find myself swallowing all the time.

Im still having terrible trapped air bubble pains no matter how slow I sip, today I usea a gasx cheweable and it did not help. warm or cold, ice liquid, all the sme effect. Is this normal healing? Feel like Im going insane.

Besides the incision pain, this was my biggest scare. It totally will go away. I am not ever really sure when mine went away, but it does!

Thanks guys. I've never been more miserable and depressed in my life. Im feeling like I made the wrong decision doing this surgery and now I have to deal with this for the rest of my life. I have yet to find anyone talking about the discomforts of this surgery so people who are thinking about it can really understand this is a MAJOR life change. I'm pretty much alone on this journey. Very few people know I done this.

And even though Ive dropped a dress size, I can't enjoy my weight loss if I am not feeling healthy and not seeing a life change improvement when I keep suffering from this feeling in my throat, the pain from the air being trappped every time I take in any flluids and the feeling of harm that could happen to me because I can't get in 70gm of Protein or 48oz of Water per day.

Sorry to be so negative, just feeling so so down. My doc office said to give it until Wednesday if I still feel the same to call and I will need to have a camera placed down my throat and whatever other test they do for this situation to see if there is any blockage.

Anyway thanks for letting me grieve and thanks again for sharing your experiences.

      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.
