Food stuck in staple line. Anyone?

[vsg5649 0]

If anyone has had food stuck in their staple line or complications similar from eating things before they should have... I would love to hear from you. I am very interested to hear what it may feel like and/or what the warning signs are. No need to jump down my throat about what I should or shouldn't be doing... just saw someone else's post in regards to this topic and wanted to reach ouf to those who have experienced this.

I have never seen a complication reported this way. A small percent have leaks and it is never known what causes them. It has been said you don't want to risk solid foods early as it could cause particles to get stuck. Trouble is some people can do everything right and still have complications while another doesn't comply with instructions and have no problem...luck???

My personal view is pick a great surgeon with an amazing track record of results and do what they say...hopefully improving odds of a great outcome.
