My dr. Says just eat and drink what i can as for all the other stuff going wrong he says he doesnt know whats causing it all... I find it all out on the internet.... Chief of surgery of a hospital and its alway i dont know why you had a stroke... Your potassium is low though so get your potassium in... Internet says low potassium can cause strokes....i excessive saliva very sticky and gross constantly filling pitchers with spit and or vomit of foamy saliva..... Doesnt know where that comes from either.... Girl on you tube, i track her story now while i was searching for excessive saliva with esophagus stent and her story us the same as mine with the stent as well as a man with cancer with a stent... Very disappointed and fearful

i am 14 months post op. if we are honest' date=' i think that we all have that "what the hell did i do to myself" moment. i had it for a very brief time, and i am 'that sleever' that everyone hates. i had no complications, only 1 throw up (because i tried to do a whole serving of broth in 5 minutes 2 weeks out) and a pretty quick recovery. so, if someone like me had it, i can truly understand someone with any complications having it.

however, at 14 months out, my life is much better. i am 20 pounds away from what my surgeon told me was a 'lofty' goal. i am smaller than i was when i graduated high school, but i don't have that 'crack addict, sick' look. i am able to do all of the things that i couldn't but wanted to. and i eat like a normal person. i don't always make good food choices, but i always stay on track, because, i didn't do this for temporary weight loss. i did it to change me life. and it has helped me take control.

hopefully, you will learn what is causing your problem, and be able to use this to be a happier you. i truly hope that you come to love it as much as i have.

good luck in your journey.[/quote']
