Has anyone needed to do a dialation after RNY? I am having a lot of trouble with vomiting and my surgeon is recommending endoscopic surgery to look into it.

Hi. I had a stricture. I just had a dilation last Thursday. I was dilated to 2 cms. I should mention that i had the sleeve done, not RNY. I like you, couldn't keep anything down. I was sleeved on 6/11.

How far out were you from the surgery for RNY

I had my surgery 6/11/18. I can get liquids down but some soft foods, usually meats, are coming back up.

I had an endoscopy yesterday and they did see mild stenosis so they dilated a little.

The good news is my staples are healed!

Unfortunately looks like I’ll be back for another this week.

Coupled with a 3 week stall I am no happy RNY camper.

And I hope the Stenosis Fairy did not whack me with her wand, but I am convinced in my mind I have a stricture. Finished up my Sunday emesis , all because I tried to chew up a saltine. I chewed, I chewed, it seemed so smooth and pasty, but Precious wasn't fooled. And I had a miserable hour of barf and slimies and belchs. But things are now peaceful and I think I can keep down beef Bone Broth. Precious temporarily quiet And actually I kind of like the broth, soon be all gone and then I'll go to either chicken one or the vegan veggie one from Wal-Mart. The bone broth does fill my needs now, That and maybe cream of 🍄 my favorites. Haven't yet tried them all from Campbell, really do perfer my own. Didnt bother with spoonfuls, just use a 2 oz cup and sip slowly.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
