So my chest and throat pains are still here and I had my surgery 9/14! When I eat and drink. So now I'm at a point where I have to eat and drink because one Im hungry and thirsty and of coarse I need to be getting things in. The only solid food I've tried is eggs scrambled as my doctor said I could. But even chewing super slow and sipping tiny bits I still have pain. Seen the doctor today he said give it another week and see if it's still happening. Now I'm so used to the pain I'm not sure if it's ok because I deal with it all day and while I'm eating. [emoji30] anyone else experienced this before?? Help!

Hey! It's still early so it's normal to have some pain and discomfort. It's a bit early to eat eggs by itself, my Dr recommended egg drop soup...but if you are going to eat eggs chew them very well about 20 to 25 times, and wait about 30min before you drink anything. That's what I was told I know every Dr give different instructions.
Also walking helps alot maybe 30min a day or as much as you can. I hope you feel better soon [emoji4]

Also I had throat pains for the first 2 to 3 weeks it was terrible...my Dr said it got irritated because of the breathing tube they put when you in surgery. I just forced myself to sip water, soup and protein as much as I could

I had pains in my throat and stomach up until this past weekend, I am 4 weeks post op today! It hurt to sip water or anything. It does get better, I'm still having a hard time with eggs though, unless they're fried. I used to love scrambeled eggs and now I cannot tolerate them. Not sure why but it is all trial and error at this point, I guess. My weight loss has come to a hault too, not sure how normal this is.

Not even one week ago. For you there it would be 14/09/2017. Maybe I should wait it out to see what happens but it's very painful [emoji37]

Maybe stick to full liquids and don't try soft foods yet? I don't know, just a thought. It sounds like just swallowing is causing you pain, so I don't know if that will help. If it were me, I would probably just do liquids for now.
