Do stricture stmptoms occur suddenly?

[Suprisedtobesleeved 20]

For those that had strictures, did you have a sudden onset of problems or was it gradual?

[OneWritersSoul 353]

For me they happened gradually. The nausea started as mild and intermittent then became persistent and overwhelming, even on increased anti-nausea meds and increased omeprazole. Mine was severe enough that I was eventually unable to vomit even the small quantities I was taking in. So, if you're experiencing any issues, don't hesitate to contact your surgeon to be on the safe side.

Thanks. I'm going in today. I was fine with puréed food for two weeks then I had a terrible pain when having something I've eaten before after only 3 small bites with a baby spoon. I know I didn't eat too fast because I chew it as much as I can before swallowing if though its practically liquid. I've been able to get Water and shakes in but there is pressure, tender feeling and I'm burping constantly even with small sips. Already taking Gerd meds 2x a day so don't think it's reflux. Just came out of nowhere.

How are you feeling? What did your Doctor say?

The doctor thinks my sleeve is just tight. Haven't had a problem since. He sent me for a CT because my heart rate was up and I was warm but CT was normal.
