shayrec 12 Posted September 8, 2012 Shayrec... checking on you. Your just a week out of surgery how are you feeling? Things going okay? Feeling really good. Down 18! Lbs. I do get tired easily but still trying to stay active. Fluids are going well, but so hard to get anything down. Every sip and bite makes this horrible pain happen in the middle of my chest. Dr today showed me the pictures of my swallow test. There is a small narrowing between sphincters and he says that's why I'm getting that pain. Told me to keep plugging away. Thin out what I am Eating and take small but more frequent sips. Thank you south for checking in on me!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Peggylou 44 Posted September 8, 2012 wow 18 pounds already! thats amazing. Im getting really nervous about my surgery on the 18 of this month. I worry because I have Barrets esaphugus (caused by reflux) I already have some pain from this condition. They say it should help having the surgery cause it will force me to change my eating habits and I will lose the 75 pounds I need to lose. The more I read on this sight the more scared I get. Reading about the complications people have and such! I hope your pain in your chest goes away soon!! Take care and keep me updated on your recovery and progress.
