I am almost 2 years post surgery. I have not had any problems but recently i have been having some more stuck episodes. I have a pain on the left side by more port and I feel sick to my stomach. I dont have any fever and I can get food down for the most part. I am nervous about slippage? There have been tremendous turnover at the facility I went to and I haven't been back in almost a year. Any thought ? When should I be worried?

You should definitely follow up with your doctor (turnover or not). Build relationship with new team.

It is vital that you seek medical advice, especially since you're having trouble. Also, take note of what you're eating because sometimes certain textures may not agree with you.

Again, I strongly urge you to go to the doctor to see what may be going on.

First off, go to the doctor.

I know that I sometimes fall back on old habits and eat too fast and don't chew as well as I should. Concentrate on eating slowly and take small mouthfuls Have you changed your food choices? Some foods are more difficult to process.

See a doctor for your own piece of mind.

you need to see the doctor now. what you are going through is not normal. if you wait whatever problem you are having could cause a slip or a dilated esophagus.
