It's me again.... I went to get the endoscopy done Friday. They open my stomach a little which was closed. First two days I can jump ropes Lolz.. Felt great.

Now I'm going reverse.... I'm vomiting & I'm not really eating.

Strange thing is I feel good. I can live on Water & not eating. The little I eat mash potatoes sunflower seeds salmon fish makes me feel good & happy. I'm not in a bad mood or anything.

Will I be like this forever? The love for food is gone. Yes I will tell my surgeon all this I'm feeling.

I hope u get everything straightened out. Sending good wishes and luck your way! You're one of my favorite posters :-)

Awww I feel so special thanks

Mam, I have been reading your post for a while and also suffer with strictures. Did they tell you back to liquids after scoping? Then puréed...then soft foods...etc? I do alot of soup...egg drop, hot and sour soup...and fage greek yogurt...pretty much daily. Can do seafood, no left overs of anything...(they are too dry and get stuck) no pills...no real carbs, ie potatoes bread or rice. This time has been mostly successful, they dilated me to 15mm. Protein shakes as needed...

They only said wait 24 hours before eating again. No liquid or soft food.

I thought you had a stricture, so in that case the things that you vomited previously should not cause it this time (or at the least might not) because what I heard from my friend with the same issue, is that everything made him throw up. He was also told to go back to liquids and move up through the stages (much more quickly though then after surgery) to reintroduce foods to his pouch. Perhaps you might try that and do a stage for a couple days then move up a stage. Liquid, pureed, etc... But soon you should be able to tolrerate a lot more food than when you were dealing with the stircture. Also my friend had to have the stretch done 3 times before he was back to normal and could eat without vomiting.

Best of luck!! It will all go up from here, right?

It looks like now I'm able to eat anything & everything except chicken Lolz.. Damn you chicken!!! I try spagetti but didn't like the taste didn't eat. I had a slice if pizza from papa John since I was really hungry & we went to the beach family time. Omg! That pizza taste so good. It had double extra cheese. Wasn't greasy or oily. I had a Celeste 1/2 today for lunch. Thus won't be an everyday thing. So far I'm doing really good. Had grill cheese 1/2 yesterday. Less then 1/4 boars head ham. I'm beginning to love it now surgery. I'm going to be careful with everything though since I'm still new not 3 months yet.

Good for you Mami! So glad to hear that you're doing better!!

Hope you get better soon
