Question:
Anyone have their opening get smaller??

Has anyone has this problem? If so, what took place for it to be corrected?    — Laura W. (posted on May 15, 2003)

This is called a stricture and it is fairly common. What they do is a dilation. Easy procedure. There is tons of info on this in the library here.

Hi. I have had this happen and to fix it they run a scope down your throat and use a balloon to stretch the opening. It is painless and they give you something to put you out. When you wake up you have to expel gas and then go home feeling like nothing even happened. You will have to go back to a liquid diet for a couple of days but it's no big deal at all.
