I'm so sorry to hear this. I'll be praying for you. Please let us know how things go.

HOPE YOU GET BETTER SOON!!!! HANG IN THERE!!!!!!

I pray that every thing will be fine.

Oh no anjel

It's Mel! I sure hope u feel better soon I'm worried for u! Let me know how it goes.

sending lots of prayers your way! To me it sounds like you may have a stricture, that is something easy to fix without an operation and from what I understand it's fairly common!!

A stricture is exactly what they said...They expanded it a bit...They said it was surrounded by scar tissue. I have to get it done once more in about a week. I'm spending on more night in the hospital to see how I tolerate soft food. I hope this resolves my issue

I had the endoscopy this morning and they said I had some stricture. They said scar tissue had formed around the opening of my pouch restricting my food intake but allowing fluids to pass through. They said the opening was really small. I have to have the procedure done again next week but honestly this is the most comfortable I've felt since before surgery. I even at 3 bites of mashed potatoes without feeling sick or like something was caught in my throat

Glad to hear things went well and you are feeling better!
