Stricture repair not working?

Had RNY on 2/10/2015 and have lost 57 lbs, and was doing good until about three weeks ago, when eating any kind of solid food, it seemed like it just wouldn't go down, lot of burping, hiccuping, reflux (no vomiting--have never vomited, have gotten queasy a few times). Dr. thought it was a stricture, so I had an endoscopy this morning, and sure enough had a very narrow opening, and they widened it with a balloon. Had no pain (was out for procedure) and went home, and was doing liquid Protein, but they said I could have soft foods for a few days, then go back to normal eating. I just tried 1/4 cup of refried Beans...and got the problem all over again--would it have closed up again in less than a day?post-253641-0-86456600-1431140508_thumb.jpgpost-253641-0-16238100-1431140524_thumb.jpgpost-253641-0-93557000-1431140541_thumb.jpg

From what I understand it not uncommon to have to have the procedure several times before it is successful.

Heard that, but--within the same day?
