at this point i cant even get food down. gotta see my dr this week

I have my meeting with the nutritionist coming up (first visit). What happens in the session and what is discussed.

at this point i cant even get food down. gotta see my dr this week

This was happening to me :( it was about 7 weeks after my surgery... They ended up putting me back in the hospital :( the opening for my throat to my pouch had closed completely they said the only open space for foot and water to flow was the size of the tip of a ball point pen... I couldn't even get water down it was miserable! I had waited a week like this before even telling my dr... So therefore I was do dehydrated that they couldn't even put an Iv in me they tried 7 times and finally got one in my shoulder :( it was the worst pain ever :( my dr had told me after placing a stent inside me to keep it open (it will be there for the ret of my life ;/ ) that if I had waited about 2 more days I would have probably died from no food or water what so ever :( it's very scary hopefully urs isn't as bad as mine was :( best of luck :(
