Any solutions to the excruciating pain in my mouth and throat? I only have minimal discomfort from the surgery area but my mouth and throat pain is almost unbearable.

I was the same way. It took about a week to start to feel better then I caught strep throat! On the bright side, I had no trouble sipping constantly. I had too. It is horrible but it does get better in a week or so. Try gargling warm salt water.

Lin 4912: is that from being intabated???

I'm sure it was. I am 10 weeks out now and the roof of my mouth is almost back to normal.

As far as the gastric bypass, I am thrilled to death I did it. However, I don't care about eating and I went through a period that protein shakes made me want to throw up. It's better now but I had to change brands and I really liked it before surgery. My taste buds have certainly changed. I have read that all of this is normal so I'm no longer concerned that I will hate certain protein foods forever (chicken,fish). I am down about 50 lbs., 2 sizes. I have noticed that I have to pay close attention to eating so I chew enough. Since I don't care that much for food, I sometimes get too hungry and get into trouble eating too fast. I try to portion out my food now to prevent eating too much too fast. That helps.

I had painful spasms in the back of the roof of my mouth after being sleeved. But it didn't hurt until days after the surgery. Freaked me out because it did not feel like something had rubbed or irritated my throat. It just went away on its own though.
