Myaiku_Kuraitani 245 Posted July 8, 2017 I have problems too but I think the problems I have with eating are my fault. Yesterday I had chicken nuggets and could only eat 1 and a half pieces. The day before that I ate something and got sick. I'm only 10 weeks out so.... It all depends on what my pouch decides to keep down. It could be anything that I get sick from but it doesn't happen as much as it did before.----------------------------HW- 273Pre-op Wt- 230SW- 226CW- 185GW- 130Ht- 5'2.5"DOS- April 26th, 2017"Only those who try will become." ~FFX Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
#fitnotfat 42 Posted July 8, 2017 I'm 5 months out and I really was struggling eating solid food, had a endoscope on Wednesday and it showed that I had a structure. We are meant to have a 3cm gap for our food to go down and mine was 8mm they even struggled to get the scope through to stretch it. They stretched it to 12mm and I have to go back in 2 weeks for them to stretch it again. Keep an eye on your eating and if you continue to struggle I would suggest to get back in touch with your consultant. Good luck. 2 blondie66 and Little Green reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
orly 8 Posted July 9, 2017 I was just diagnosed with a stricture at 4 weeks out and am having my third endoscopy with dilation this Thursday. I was having trouble keeping food and Water down, but it was totally hit or miss until all of a sudden everything made me sick. Definitely worth getting checked out. 1 blondie66 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Savagegirl 97 Posted July 12, 2017 For those of you who had the balloon dilation, do you have this at the doctor's office? Did you have the endoscopy first (same day)? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
orly 8 Posted July 13, 2017 I had to have it scheduled at a surgicenter. I'm going for my fourth dilation tomorrow, the dr is hoping that this one will be the last. 1 Savagegirl reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
