Well I am back on liquids again, the food is getting stuck, and I have been once a day and other times I just am in pain, until it passes, so I call the DR. this am, and with the Hoildays and every thing she is out of the Office until Jan, 7, So the nurse said to go back on liquids for a few days, and see if maybe that will settle things down, and then try to eat food again to see if it will stay down, if not, I guess the Dr. will scope me to see what is going on down their, Hey it is not like I am eatting alot any way, So that is what has been going on with me, Hope every one is doing good,

Janet, it sounds like you have a stricture. Hang in there and do what the nurse advised. If you are still in pain give her a call back and see what you can take for pain, usually it is liquid Tylenol.

Yes, it is a scarring of the opening out of the stomach pouch into the intestinal track. My sister had one with her RNY, could get yogurt, cottage cheese and water down also. So, keep on it with your doctor/nurse. It is one of those fickle complications that not everyone gets, some get multiple times and some are fixed after one scope like my sister. Christine

Thank you Marilyn, Oh I will call them if I can't keep liquids down, I just ate some Yogrut and I was fine with that,

Janet, even though I am a lapbander, I can so relate to you, as I am having problems keeping things down too.  It could be you are eating to fast or taking to big a mouthful, or not chewing enought, I find if I use a baby spoon or fork it helps and I am forced to eat slower, (smaller spoon=less food=slower eating) You will get over this. Hugs

Lisa, I was thinking the same thing, and I do use baby spoon and fork. I don't think I am eatting to fast , but I might be,How slow are we to eat anyway,? I think I need to stop watching TV when I eat too.
