question:confused:...do any of yall have these, what i call esophageal spasms? i don't have to be eating or drinking but i get these spasms upper chest...it's not so bad i can't stand it, but not pleasant either....

ok, i will hush for a while...:) yall hang in there...i am trying to catch up...:thumbup:

I do get the spasms. Unfortunately for me, I was getting them before surgery, so I take levsin for it. My PCP seems to think it is a part of my IBS.

hey slim...you can never give TMI...hehe...:tt2:when you had your p'bing episode...was it like i have heard...slimy? or just stuck...? did it hurt? or just uncomfy? it worries me a little that there wasn't really a warning leading up to it, just a hello, here i am kinda think, ya know?

It was slimy, but I didn't slime if that makes sense. I could see the slime when the chicken came up, but I never had just slime coming up into my mouth. It didn't hurt, but it never made it out of my throat. I just felt like I should have been choking or something. I burped a few times while it was in my throat, but it didn't give any kind of relief. I would have loved to have a warning. I don't know if I missed it or what. I am just going slow with it now.

Hi Samurai! I am 6 weeks and 1 day post op. Ihad my first fill today. It went like a breeze. I got 3 ccs in my 9 cc realize band. I was really surprised to get that much. The dr said that I should feel restriction and to do soft foods and liquids tonight. I came home and had a little broccoli and rice mix with a little mashed chicken. It went down well. Oh and by the way I have lost 21 lbs since surgery! I also started the couch to 5k program this week and love love love it!

You are doing so well with your weight loss! I am glad that your fill went well. I have my first fill tomorrow. Supposedly, my doctor won't tell me how much they put in though. I guess I will see tomorrow. Keep up the good work!:sad_smile:

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
