Yes, I can eat just fine. I have never been stuck before but I would imagine it to be somewhere near my chest. I, of course, could be wrong but the pain was right under neath my left ribcage. This morning when I woke up it was gone, so hopefully it will remain that way.

No food stuck. I just ate dinner and everything went fine. The nurse never called back! Not very happy about that.

I am 3.5 weeks post op and have been eating slowly, chewing my food and having no issues. Today I had lunch during a meeting and I guess I got caught up and started taking to big of bites. I have this horrible pain under my left rib cage. It’s a shooting, stabbing pain. It has been going on for about 4 hours now. What should I go? I actually almost buckled from the pain in the hallway at work. I have taken some papaya enzymes just to see if it would help, but no luck. I have left a message with the nurse just waiting to hear back.

I started sleepin g on my side after day three. Im not sure why you would have an indention but i dont see how you could have caused any damage.

I just started my mushy phase today... had refried beans with salsa for lunch. Not sure how well its going down. Seems to be a bit sluggish. Anyone else experience that? I am trying mashed potatoes tonight. I can't wait until I can eat real food again. I have been craving my favorite restraunt.

Glad to see your back on track! Good Luck!

I have an awful taste in my mouth as well. It makes everything taste bad, I never have an appetite. Hopefully it goes away soon.

You both look amazing! I hope to have s success story like you.

My doctor said when they start cracking I can start pealing it off.... But it won't go anywhere. I even tried alcohol.

I'm only a week post op so I had 1/3 cup if broccoli and cheese soup. What I would have gives for a burger patty!

Has anyone else experienced a feeling like they have a ball or something stuck in the back of their throat? I am only 1 week post op and everytime I eat (drink my liquids) I get this feeling.

My doctor put in 1.5 ccs during surgey but i was not allowed to swallow pills. How small are they?

I started taking them yesterday, 5 days post op.

You will do great! It's amazing the difference a week makes. I'm a week banded and you were still waiting to hear back from Trus Results. Good Luck!

Every time I took my pain meds I ate another gas x strip. I must have had 6 a day because I would she up through the night in pain and walk and take more medicine. I'm still depressed.... Home alone today while everyone is at a BBQ.
