Feeling of lump at bottom of throat



Recommended Posts

I had gastric sleeve procedure on 11/18/17, so it's been one year since my surgery. For the last few days, I've had a sensation at the bottom of my throat of fullness, almost like food or something is stuck far down my throat.

Has anyone else experienced this sensation or know what it is? I do take 40 mg of Protonix for GERD which I started 2 weeks post-op, and I'm also taking 150 mg of Ranitidine a day. However, this sensation doesn't feel like the burning sensation I usually experience with GERD. I can't imagine that food or anything of that nature is actually stuck though since I don't have any vomiting and Water / saliva would have washed it away.

Any ideas?

Sounds like GERD to me

Also 11/18/17 was this week, so your post is really confusing.

Ive has something like that before my sleeve. Bad reflux caused inflammation, felt like a lump in my throat for several weeks. Takes a while to go away

Oops, I had surgery 11/18/16, that was a typo.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
