[dodiefrisby 0]

Please someone help me. Over the past 24 hours I feel like I have something stuck in my throat. It is very uncomfortable. I havent been able to eat anything today, and threw up when I tried. I do have terrible heartburn issues so I take over the counter meds for that, but this is a different feeling. I have felt really crappy today, and dont know why. I do know however, that I ate some marinated cucumbers yesterday. They didnt bother me at all. I have no idea why this is happening buy I am starting to get really worried. Any idea's of what is happening? I am desperate.

My wife just went through this a few weeks also. She's now 9 weeks post. It started when she ate chicken, going from soft to regular foods. It just takes some time. She went back to Protein Drinks for a few days, adding in Jell-o and then we added pureed foods a little at a time. If it stays with you move than a few days, see your doctor.

I haven't even been sleeved yet but I can tell you that cucumbers are notriously famous for causing heartburn and stomach upset especially if underipe and with skins on! I get immediate stomach pressure and burping right after eating them. Hope you get to feeling better soon.

Well they didnt have the skins on, and I didnt feel anything immediately, but meanwhile almost 24hrs later; I have throw up and and having a very difficult time eating.

I think 5 weeks post op is not the right time to be eating cucumbers. I wasn't on stuff like that until 8 weeks. Try softer foods for a couple days. Has your doctor moved you to regular food already? that seems awfully soon to me. your sleeve needs time to heal, and it probably can't handle stuff like that yet, so you have a stuck feeling. Do you have the slimes too with it? Do you have a nutritionist or dietician, and were you given an eating plan? Please don't try to rush your eating. Your time will come when you can eat anything, but 5 weeks is too soon.
