Hello, I was sleeved on 12/7/2020. Have anyone experienced cramping while swallowing like the food is having a hard time passing?

Yes/No.

I have experienced discomfort while swallowing food on occasion. It's usually a sign that I have taken too big of a bite/didn't chew well enough/am eating too fast. However, it's a sort of pressure discomfort. I wouldn't call it a "cramp."

Kinda sorta. We get what we call "the foamies" here whenever we eat something our stomach doesn't like or we eat a little too much. We sometimes throw up mucus.

Thank you guys!

Muscle cramps always and my nerves are much better

I had this early on and it was painful enough that I described it as a cramp. I would swallow the food then...one one-thousand, two one-thousand, CRAMP! It didn't matter how small of a bite I took or how much I chewed. Even a small sip of water would bring it on. Fortunately, that passed in week 3 for me and hasn't recurred since. Hang in there.

Thank you everyone, @jaelzion that sounds about right!! It’s reliving to hear it passed.

Ok I’m 2nd week out!! I think it’s kinda a heart burn burn feeling.I think it’s our surgery saying enough.I did dump(look it up)1 time (eggs)was so hungry from 1week clear broth I over ate!!!!! No more not worth the pain! I ate a little over1/4 and got so nauseated !Now Iv am learning slow and small bites ! Take a bite get up go do dishes or something and then come back for 2 nd repeat

It happens to me. No matter how small the sip is, I get a crampy feeling in the middle of my chest.

As of today... I ate greens beans and I did not cramp (yay) I’ll move to meats tomorrow. I’m hoping the crampy feeling is over. I am burping a lot though ?

I eat Turkey chicken green beans salads, ground beef & I burp a lot. And have lots of gas

Hi, I'm 12 days post-op. I haven't been sick or nauseous at all, but sometimes it feels like the liquids are stuck after I sip them - even with just little sips. The good news is the feeling has passed now that I'm close to the end of the 2nd week. My diet consists of Gatorade Zero, Bone Broth, Premier Protein pre-mixed Shakes, Bari Jello, and sugar free popsicles.

Yes.. I had to revert back to liquids. Except for today when i tried the green beans

I’m only on day 5 today but same! My surgeon sent me home with Levisin (spelling?!), it’s basically a medicine to help the stomach spasms. They said it usually passes after the first week or two so I’m hoping it does! It seems to do it more with warm liquids. Feels more prominent. ??‍♀️

Ok... sleeve family. I haven’t lost 1 pond in a month. Please tell me what Im missing. I’m only in my second month of being sleeved. Feeling really depressed and defeated.

@peachmedley46 I'm sorry to hear that. I had my sleeve 5 days ago and am curious to see how much I've lost at my post op visit. But hang in there. Everyone is a little different and after the sleeve I'm certain you'll lose at least 50% of your weight. It's all the doctors say and studies and medicine. We didnt go through all of this for nothing. Keep going and dont give up. Good luck.
