Strictures

I'm 6 weeks post-op around 41/2-5 weeks I started having some issues with restriction and stomach gas when I tried to eat I originally thought it might be the first signs of gallbladder issues. I saw my surgeon this week and he is scheduling an endoscopy he thinks it could be a stricture. Has this happened to anyone else how did it resolve itself?

With bypasses, strictures are relieved by inflating a balloon in the tight area, stretching it open. Since you have a sleeve, the process might be the same.... but it could also be more involved.. like needing a temporary stent.

Glad your surgeon is being proactive getting you looked at.
