Not going down easy!

[Mamapanda2 0]

So I am eating my first mush food today. I had refried Beans (black beans), low fat shredded cheese and a little guacamole. My stomach feels like it is constricting when the food hits it? Is this normal. I am not feeling nauseous or anything (maybe a little gassy) so I stopped and took a few bites of my cottage cheese. Same thing. I also had a hernia fixed when I got the sleeve.

I did get a Greek yogurt down this morning and a few bites of scrambled egg (it ended up being too dry for me)

Anyone else have the constricting pain when first eating?

I did. Except I would describe it more like spasms. I did call my doctor's office and I was told it was part of the healing process and if it was unbearable to head to the hospital. Mind you, I had the spasms from day 1 so even drinking Water and Protein shakes triggered it.

It went away in 2/3 weeks. Good luck.

Yes I do get it when drinking the Water and the shakes also, but not as bad as with the food. Awesome! Thanks

I had something similar except it happened sometimes even when I wasn't eating. I had a prescription for Levsin post op which helped with spasms.
