Is my slight unfill enough??

On Monday I had a slight unfill of .2cc's.  So my restriction went from 5cc's to 4.8cc's.  I had this done because 80% of what I ate hurt.  I was afraid I was hurting my esophagus.  I was told to go on liquids for the rest of the day, mushies through noon the next day and by evening regular food.  I plan to wait till Monday, in case I'm rushing it, but food still hurts by the 3rd bite I take.  Liquids and the mushies I ate were fine.  But the salmon I had hurt.  The 2 bites I had of a breakfast sandwich hurt.  Do I call, or wait till Monday and give it a week?

This is just me but I would call the doctor.  I wouldn't want to go into the weekend and end up having an issue.  If you went back to liquids for a day or two and then mushies for another day or two and solid food as you can handle it you may feel better.  You might have some swelling going on because of the irritation and it may take a day or two for the swelling to go down.  I would call my doctor regardless and see what he thinks.

Thanks so much for responding.  I did go back to mushies today, after the breakfast sandwich problem.  Much better.  I think I will do mushies again tomorrow, then see what happens on Fri. as I try regular food again.  Thank you!
