My daughter was having similar issues only 2 months out. They will probably want to do a barium swallow test on you. You really need to reach out to them and set up another appointment. My daughter's surgeon has an online system where you can talk directly to them or their assistants and discuss issues. You truly need to get this taken care of urgently. There could be an issue (possibly a leak involved) which could be very bad for you. Even if you do a telemed appointment with them and discuss, they can get you in for testing quickly probably. However, what we did find out is that she was very dehydrated. We went to an infusion site (IV hydration location) and had fluids and B complex infusions done and within 30 minutes after, she was able to get down more fluids and more foods. You have to get yourself to a point where you're able to get down the 4 oz necessary at each meal. Take care of yourself and do what you need to do to feel better. My daughter is immuno-suppressed as well, but these infusion sites are ran by nurses and EMT's. It is a very clean environment and they wear masks and if you have one, wear it as well. You will be ok. ?
