I'm having pain when I swallow, is this normal?

Ugh I feel like crap!

I had my surgery 10-21 and they told me during surgery you have a breathing tube placed down your throat to breath when you are knocked out. Your throat could hurt for a while. They rant that gentle with you when you are put to sleep!

Yes being intubated during surgery can cause a sore throat. Mine lasted about four days with my hernia surgery.

It's not like a sore throat, it's lower like its my stomach.

Whenever I had something to drink that early out, I had horrific pain when I swallowed even just a teeny tiny trickle...........my stomach was spasming.........I was told to warm up my liquids.......and it made a difference......the spasms would happen even with room tempearture liquids.< /span>

I warmed up everything, even my crystal light...ask your doctor's office about the pain you're expereincing

be patient with your body.......your tummy is swollen and pissed off as hell

That being said, a week makes a huge difference.....Wishing you the best and an easy recovery.....welcome to the losers' bench!

I got sleeved on the 14th Ann's that was what was happening to me every time I swallowed I could deal it got down then it should hurt as it entered the new pouch.the only think I could think of its that they bruised that entrance muscle with the tube they use to gauge your new pouch. It went away in about a week. I hasty powered threw it in order ttyl get all my liquids down. Not sure weather that was the weight or wrong thing to do.

My dr gave me a steroid shotgun help bring the swelling down. I wasn't able to keep Water down due to the swelling.

Today feeling much better. I've been walking all over and passed my leak test! I've got diluted apple juice now!
