I'm going to be a senior in high school this year. I will be 5 weeks and 4 days post op when school starts, I was realllllly excited to go back, now I'm nervous to go back. I'm going to be telling my schools nurse about it(very good idea) if she's there tomorrow and I need to find out who my gym teacher will be (cause they forgot to give me a gym period) so I can tell him/her about it and hopefully they don't tell the other teachers, should I tell the principle too? Anyways my biggest fear about going back is getting sick, like nausea sick anywhere during the school say even on the bus. And I worry about not getting enough sleep, I don't get enough now it's like I can't get to bed at normal hour. But yeah my biggest is getting sick and missing a lot of school. Ugh it deffinately not how I planned my last year. I worry the worst when I'm not feeling well and that Is like now. I have a headache and I'm tired and I have a nasty taste in my mouth from reflux I supposed and I hope to get whatever fill I have in, out, some people said they had reflux and their band was too tight and needed a unfill and I have that band that has a fill in it during surgery and they felt better after. Dang I forgot my though ugh! Hate when that happens

thanks alot (:

Hey Erin,

Don't quote me on this because I may not be correct. My mother-in-law had surgery on her esophogus and they thought she may have to be streched from norrowing. So I think this is something that happens from possibly scarring or the swelling from haveing surgery and then the opening is not large enough. I don't know how common this is, but your definitely not alone. I hope this helps and doesn't scare you more.

God bless you on your journey to a healthy life.
