I'm 6days out so been sipping, this was so thick and doesn't taste good that I chugged the 2.5oz, thought I was gonna throw up and black out lol. Took a few mins to stabilize and I'm still little queezy and dizzy lol

Bought it at krogers, it's really thick.

I was sleeved Monday and am hacking up a thick yellow mucus, figured it was a combination of the weather change and that I quit smoking.

Esophageal spasms are abnormal contractions of the muscles in the esophagus (the tube that carries food from the mouth to the stomach).

These spasms do not move food effectively to the stomach. Causes, incidence, and risk factors The cause of esophageal spasm is unknown.

Very hot or very cold foods may trigger an episode in some people.

Symptoms

•Difficulty swallowing or pain with swallowing

•Pain in the chest or upper abdomen

•It can be hard to tell a spasm from angina pectoris, a symptom of heart disease.

•The pain may spread to the neck, jaw, arms, or back

Doctor said was side effect of surgery that they see occasionally.

Any tips on puréed foods? What are you using to purée?

There are pre made ones by hormel' date=' bought all 4 haven't got to that stage yet but have them

I found them at HEB (grocery store) for $3.49 ea

Is this okay for the liquid diet if I take the chicken chunks out????

I'm suppose to be on stage 2 full liquids, my doctor allows creamy Soups, but you have to strain out all chunks/lump.

Feel little nausea today but may be because I finally went out the house. Went and got my toes and nails done, it had been over a month and they looked rough.

Better with each day, unfortunately for me I have the side effect of esophageal spasms. Hurt so bad. So doctor moved me back to Clear liquids only and have to do a barium swallow test Tuesday at my follow up appointment. If they can make it go away without additional surgery then I will stop regretting the surgery lol.

Pre op appointment 12-4-12 weight 198.5

Hey guys since we're all shorties with similar goals thought it would be fun to get on my fitness pal together.

If you're interested I'm: asherje

All your stories are keeping me motivated when I just wanna break down and cry from these esophageal spasms. After years of dealing with lap band complications to have the revision Monday and end up with a possible side effect.

Since we are all around similar weights thought it would be fun to add each other to our fitness pal apps to support each other.

If you're interested here's my handle: asherje

What ever you do dear lord do not try and sleep in a high bed lol. My 5yr old always sneaks into bed with me when my fiancé is on duty. He did not like the idea that need to sleep on the recliner, so being the softy that I am let him sleep in my room, was a B to climb in it, it hurt. Well then it was time to take my pain meds.... I was a turtle on my back, almost had to wake him or call my sister to come over, but finally slid to edge to grab nightstand and roll. Talk about pain! Don't know if my son crowing in labor or that was worse pain lol!

I wanna say surgery Monday, pain till about Thursday night. Today other then the bed thing abdominal pains were gone. Just tender.

Hey guys any of you dealing with esophageal spams? I was sleeved Monday and feel like I'm dying and retreat ever having Lapland 5yrs ago needing the revision I got Monday

I'm so sad and miserable I ever got the surgery.

I was the 10th, went home Wednesday. I'm miserable, having esophageal spasms. Most of the gas pains have subsided. I'm just so miserable, I don't even want to try drinking anything. I've been decent at sipping Water, was suppose to start full liquids today but doctor wants me to stay on clears to help the spasms, I follow up with them Tuesday and another barium swallow and see what's the status of my sleeve. I'm regretting ever doing this.

Yeah been sleeping in recliner since I came home Wednesday, wasn't really to climb in and out of bed.

Talked to my doctor, I'm having Esophageal spams. I'm to keep on Clear Liquids till Monday. Hoping it goes away, now am in the wtf did I do phase.

Sleeved Monday dec 10th, still in lots or pain & suffering extreme nausea from time to time. How long did it take for nausea to go away?

Also have random sharp pain in my chest/throat area, feels like I just swallowed a bowling ball, it's an intense searing pain that leaves as mysterious as it started. Anyone else with this? Could it be gas pains from being inflated during surgery moving around?

Oh and he did cook dinner for him and my son, and it was....

Sausages, Mac n cheese and naked Beans lol. Do I know him or what

Had surgery monday dec 10th, was discharged from hospital Wednesday dec 12th and was told I'm clear for driving and sex.

Now my body on the other hand says "oh Hell no!" I'm a bit tender still lol

My sister picked up a tube of NewGel+E from her plastic surgeon yesterday for me. Says its amazing, she had her breasts redone few weeks ago and swears by it. Says it makes those thick raised scars flat and barely visible.

I've seen so many post in people asking what they were doing for there post op diet. So have attached a copy of mine to see how they are different and the same

Hi there luvs! I was revised from band to sleeve dec 10th at memorial Herman hospital in the Texas medical center. Hurt bad still, can't stand up straight from the pain on the right side. Have hard time with liquids, only because my band sutures had broken so band was in wrong spot cause dilation of my lower esophagus.

I get to start phase 2 tomorrow

How about :

Well that sucks! I've been trying to find like a clothing rental option so as we lose weight were not breaking the bank buying new clothes constantly, or keeping tags to return clothes.
