Does anyone else feel the things they swallow go through the stomach?



Recommended Posts

I'm still on liquid diet. I have been taking my meds crushed with sugar free pudding. There are times , even with my shakes and Water that I feel that I can feel it going through. Some of it causes me pain. My next part is a soft diet. I will be 2 weeks out Thursday. I tried a bit of scrambled egg today, just because after 4 weeks of liquids (pre diet included) I wanted something a bit more food like. Now even though I chewed it well I felt it. It hurt. Now it feels like it is sitting in there. I'm regretting the bite!! Don't do it!!! I'm 20lbs down now from the beginning of the month. 10 lbs down before. 10 lbs down since surgery 1.5 weeks ago. My twin sons told me today I'm looking skinner. Can't screw this up!

At first I could feel almost everything. Dr & NUT both said it was due to inflammation in the beginning. It did go away, mostly. Almost 9 months out now & I can feel cold (like ice cold) beverages as they go down, but that is about it. I still get really good restriction & can't eat big bites, but doesn't hurt & doesn't bother me anymore.

I have been able to take all my meds whole, with no issues.
