Sounds horrid! If you are still experiencing the same and/or vomiting perhaps you should contact a doctor if you haven't already.

Update. I Pretty much threw up until ALL of that crap came out. Apparently they reconstituted and swelled in my lil pouch and my stoma and blocked anything from going down. I figured this out because as I was throwing up (for hours) everything that came up was way larger than what went in. I will NEVER eat dried ANYTHING again I'm still upset. Anyway the next day I went way back to the beginning and rested poor pouch and only had liquids. And that is HARD to do 9 months out I must say. Thank you guys for commenting and caring and any really new post ops we continue to learn as you see.

I once had a piece of beef Jerky stuck and it sucked so I know how you feel. If you ever get meat stuck, you can try some papaya enzymes. They will help break down the Protein quickly. Whatever you do, don't drink Water thinking you'll flush it down, that just makes it worse.

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
