Ok I am one week post op today, and for the last 2 days I feel like I have food stuck in my throat, I have only eaten soups and a little bit of applesauce. It does seem to go away for a little while but then returns, now i have the feelin since early this afternonn with no relief. I tried to bring it up but got nothing but clear mucus and thats it. Help, what is it and what do I do?

This is gonna sound so gross but I thought I had liquids stuck in my throat also. Turned out I had a lot of crap in my lungs from anesthesia and the tube and everything and I randomly hacked up all the mucus by the end of the week. It was really nasty but after I got it out I felt fine. I would give the doctor a call just to see what they have to say though.

If it goes away then it probably isn't food. Seems more likely its a trapped air bubble and you need to walk it off. When were you banded? I was banded on 2/24/09. I still have a lot of midsection tightness and I can burp where most people I see here are having trouble with that. Maybe chew on some gasX tabs to help.
