I moved to purée after 2 weeks, but the last week was rough. Nothing would go down, and just kind of sat in my chest. I toughed it out until my 1 month appointment, and she said my opening below my stomach was probably too small.
She gave me prednisone for 5 days, and although it's another nasty med that is hard to swallow, I could tell a difference that day. Was able to eat some spaghetti sauce with turkey, and will try fish again tonight.
The other problem is, all my Protein Shakes are now intolerable, lol. Too sweet and yucky. I am doing some homemade smoothies now, frozen fruits and Silk Light with some Jay Robb egg Protein. Seems to be working. I was having trouble getting my protein since I couldn't down those shakes. Wish me luck.
