9 weeks midline stricture

[10yearstolate 0]

Has anyone been dealing with a stricture just diagnosed 5 days post dilation and can barely drink a liter of Water no food maybe 20 grams Protein daily. Spent weeks in hospital before just recently finding a midline stricture! Can barely do cream Soups and Water gurgles. Have to choose water or food. Just wondering if anybody has had similar problems and how many dilations till they could eat something without being in agony, any causes grief except water. Lost 70# since 9-14-16.

I sympathize with your issues

i can only imagine the difficult time you are going through

hope you have support from family/friends

you and doc are working together towards a fix/solution

i see you just joined BP

welcome, welcome

hope your stick around

there's a lot of good info to read

advice, suggestions, "real life" experiences etc

you've lost 70 lbs!!!

that's great

possibly much of that weight was attributed to being sick

but it's still gone

hope you slowly but surely feel better sooner than later

take care

good luck
