Weird feeling in esophagus?



Recommended Posts

I was sleeved 7/21 and I just woke up with acid reflux and the feeling like there is a small pill stuck at the end of my esophagus. Kind of when you swallow a pill with not enough Water. The funny thing is that the only pill I am taking right now is a very tiny protonixs which I took probably about 20 hours before. I'm still on clears also so I know it's not a piece of food. Anyone else have this issue?

It's probably just swelling. It takes several weeks for all the swelling to go down. Hang in there!

7/20 here and have the same thing. In fact, there are times where I can feel the Water sitting going into my stomach like a funnel. I'm expecting as swelling subsides that feeling will lessen.

It's hard to swallow pills for me with out enough Water. That's feeling is awful. I'm 5 weeks out to and I'm on purée stage so I know the food is going down just don't like the feeling in my esophagus hope you feel better soon.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
