Lorey_a 19 Posted April 10, 2021 I notice if I drink more than three swallows of my Protein Shake I get a discomfort as it goes down. It a sensation that feels like gas build up and trying to get through is the best way to describe it. Has anyone else had this feeling and or is it normal and passes with continued healing.

Arabesque 7,426 Posted April 11, 2021 Is it like a tightness across your chest? That if you thump your chest it may pass & let whatever is stuck get through? If it is this is your restriction. It’s likely kicked in because you’re eating or sipping too quickly or you’ve consumed enough. I still have to leave a couple of minutes between bites of food or sips of liquids or I’ll feel my restriction. And I can only now have two swallows of a liquid at a time.

Lorey_a 19 Posted April 11, 2021 Maybe right - it happens when I have two or three Soup spoonful's then I wait 20 minutes. Maybe I need to spread it out further. Thanks for your response:) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kathy060464 43 Posted April 11, 2021 Completely normal and it will get easier. Try taking smaller sips and spacing it out more. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
