If you are too tight nothing will go down.

I am not hungry after a good fill either. I just take in liquids (shakes, broth, milk etc.) for two days and work myself up to solids. After around 4-5 days the swelling goes down and my appetite gets a little better.

When I am too tight, like 7 days after a fill, I can swallow Water and it feels like I have swallowed a golf ball. If it is stuck I usually start a massive saliva thing going until it finally goes through. I have no problem telling the difference. The tightness will wear off as the stomache waslls thin out. IF you are way too tight, even the liquids won't go down .:rolleyes:

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
