Deleted Account 151 Posted September 9, 2017 I'm not there yet either, but how do you describe "sick?" Nausea or exactly what? I'm truly interested, and I hope you get relief and some answers soon. 🌷 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

James Marusek 5,244 Posted September 9, 2017 After bariatric surgery, some people experience a stricture. This can cause the condition you described. According to the internet: Strictures can occur once you are about 4 to 8 weeks out from surgery. A stricture is a narrowing of the new stomach outlet where it surgically attached to the small bowel. Symptoms include difficulty with eating solid foods, developing increased saliva or mucous, reflux symptoms, and in severe cases, difficulty with liquids. A stricture, with time, can resolve on its own, but often the waiting time to heal can make you feel miserable. Once you are out at least 4 weeks from surgery, balloon dilation with endoscopy can be performed to open up the narrowing. Several balloon dilations might be needed to fix the issue. 1 ddeveno reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
