  1. I found you and have followed you! I am loving some of those recipes you have pinned. I can't wait to try some of them! Right now It seems I still have a very finicky stomach.

    Awesome! I puke up everything I eat so I'm sure I have a stricture. But I can't wait to try them either!

  2. from the heeling process' date=' sometimes your opens start to close off and "resctrict" your intake, usually around your stomach.

    Could this be an ulcer developing? The burning sounds concerning.... Hope you feel better!! Let us know.[/quote']

    Doc wants to see if its just swelling from maybe some food that got stuck. He put me on Clear liquids for now. I've been keeping Water down ok today.

  3. This started last night and it's a burning and pressure sensation where my throat meets my chest. It kept me up all night last night. When I tried to eat today I threw up shortly afterwards and continued to do that for 5 hours. Now when I take a drink of Water the heartburn comes back immediately. Has anyone experienced this? No new foods. I'm 4 weeks post op.

  4. Regarding the heartburn or reflux: are you drinking crystal light w lemonade? The crystal lights can be acidic for some people. I am sensitive to it. I only use 1/2 package for a 16oz bottle of Water. It is more watered down but I don't have the reflux issue.

    Gen :-)

    No crystal light. Only water. This started 2 nights ago but no changes to my diet.

  5. Hey I ordered mine at the Walgreens pharmacy. It's actually says Tylenol sore throat but the ingredients are 100% Tylenol the pharmacist said that sore throat was just a marketing pitch. I think they sell the normal one over the counter check the cough and cold section. It's blue! I ordered the extra strength bc we can only take in so little. Let me know if you have any other questions. ;)

    Thank you! I will look for that

  6. Hey guys I'm out of the hospital now... I had SEVER dehydration and stomach and back spasms so they did a ct scan with contrast and everything looks good no leaks or blockages so they are just saying it was my muscles so I'm on a muscle relaxer and was on iv liquids and morphine which didnt even touch my pain

    Sp glad it was nothing more severe than dehydration. I've been so worried about you!
