Ok so I had an upper GI and I don't have a stricture. I was supposed to start eating soild food 2 weeks ago. I was able to get like 3 tsp of fish and mashed potatoes down without vomiting. But I'm so afraid to eat cause then when I drink an hour after my food- I vomit it up. I can't get chicken down. Has anyone else had a difficult time getting food down. I'm so frustrated. Any suggestions.

I can't eat any kind of meat except lean deli stuff like turkey. I have had tuna and chicken get stuck. Believe me that isn't fun. It's very painful. I know that a lot of people seem to have issues with meat. Maybe try chewing like there is no tomorrow and taking very tiny bites. Some people eat off baby spoons to keep from taking to big of a bite. I hope they figure out what is going on soon.

I'm 14 months post-op. I still can't eat chicken or tuna. I can eat ground chicken, though. Maybe try that? I make chili, burgers, and meatballs with it. Eat very slowly, small bites, and chew, chew, chew! I use appetizer forks and spoons for my utensils.
