At 6 weeks you should be able to eat more. I was adding salads an veggies by then without problem. I vote call your doc, he needs to take a peek and make sure you don't have a structure or something else. If it was just occasionally I'd say maybe it's what you're eating or how you're eating but if it's every time then something isn't rightZ good luck!!!

Everything you eat gets stuck. That's the big red flag for a stricture.

You need to call your surgeon's office for an appointment, so he can schedule you for an EGD. Only after, you will finally get relief.

      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.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
