STRICTURE? Please help me

Papya enzyme will help break down food if something feels stuck or your pouch feels full or something isn't settling.

It gets better!!! I had the CT scan last month. That stuff is nasty you have too drink!! And a lot of it too boot with a tiny stomach. The EDG for stricture dilatation is very easy

I had one last month and after debating with the nurse, we decided that I should just chug the liquid that they add to the Water straight like a shot. That worked much better as opposed to trying to drink all of that Water

Ok thanks! I saw someone at some point recommending for nausea also, wasn't sure what it really did.

If you are having nausea you should get a prescription for sublingual Zofran.. Helps tremendously... Most surgeons and doctors have no problem prescribing especially since nausea can sabotage our day for eating and drinking.

I have to stay overnight. I'm glad to be on the mend though.

Mine was throwing up non stop after 3 months post up.

[Jessica9190 127]

I wasn't throwing up constantly but that's probably because I wasn't eating. I was dehydrated and low on Vitamins especially potassium but getting all that through IV now. Hopefully by tomorrow all will be good.

Thank you mami

Thanks everyone for all your support and advice. I wouldn't have called my surgeon if it wasn't for you guys.

Did they put you to sleep for your dilatation?? How long were you there after? I know i was told but can't remember...

I was put to sleep released same day. The second time I was in hospital for 5 days. Went in Christmas day Tuesday They fixed the stricture on a Wednesday then ultrasound on Thursday and gall bladder removal on Friday came home on Saturday
