Almost 8 weeks out and body still being weird about food?

[Evenkeel 5]

I've had other GI issues since surgery and maybe that's to blame but I thought I'd ask here first. This morning I sat down to eat something I've eaten successfully many times before and as soon as I went to swallow the first bite my body immediately "nope!"-ed with nausea and burning in my esophagus/throat. I waited a minute for it to settle, attempted another bite, and it happened again, only worse. I fought the urge to vomit and had to throw the rest out. Taking a bite of something and getting nauseous happens once in a while but today is a new extreme. Is this common to be happening still at 8 weeks out?

may just be a fluke. My pouch is pissy sometimes. But if it continues, call your surgeon's office. It could be a stricture. I had two of them, and those were the symptoms - I couldn't keep food down. they're fairly common during the first three months post-op. And the fix is painless and easy.

Stricture? What do they do to fix it?

they do an upper endoscopy and use this balloon thing to dilate the stoma. They knock you out for it, so it's painless. You feel 100% better right away
