feeling of something in throat

Hey guys I woke to a feeling of something in my throat. Its been like this all day, i am on mushies, banded 4/13/11, everything goes down, never threw up.

Let me know if anyone has had this and if so let me know what caused it. I feel some heartburn but didnt wake up with heartburn. Thanks

I sometimes feel like something is caught in my throat when I eat too fast. But it seems like stuff shouldn't be backed up like that if you're just eating mushies. I know you're not suppose to drink when you eat but my doc told me it was ok to sip if I needed to rinse something down or if I was out and just wanted to feel like I'm having a normal meal with everyone else. So that's what I do when I get that feeling like something is in my throat. I just take a quick sip to rinse whatever it is. Not sure this is what's happening to you but in case it helps.

Hey guys following up for others who may go through this. I went to the doc did a barium absolutely nothing wrong there. This is sensitivity to 1) moving to mushies, 2) eating mushies to quickly, or 3) still swollen from surgery. I am only 2 weeks out today. It could have been a combination of all.

Anyone doc said it will pass and I am happy to say it has. All you will need to do is drink warm liquids. I did teas all day when I got back from doc and I don't feel that issue anymore.

Don't forget that they stick a tube down your throat in surgery.

A while ater my surgery, i started to get a choking feeling or something caught in my throat feeling at all times of the day. food wasn't what triggered this feeling because sometimes it would wake me up in the middle of the night 6-7hours after I ate.

I asked my doctor and he explained my throat was just sore from surgery and it would take some time. It wa finally a month post op I believe when it finally went away. Not a fun feeling.

Hope things are better.
