Food Stuck for Two DAYS!!??

Has anyone ever had food stuck for this long!!??

I have been feeling really awful all day. Sooo much pain in my tummy and nausea. Finally an hour ago, it was too much to bear and I made myself vomit.

For lack of being gross.....I have no idea how that much "stuff" was in my tiny pouch! You may recall that I am 2 years post op, but had a revision 6 weeks ago and lost 30% of my pouch to ulcers....so what remains is very tiny!

What struck me as odd is that at the very end of my vomitting session....I threw up a bunch of scrambled eggs that I ate yesterday morning! So I had two days of food piling up on top of it....no wonder I was soooo uncomfortable!

My surgeon at TWH is suspicious of a stricture....and so am I now. Liquids seem to pass ok, but all food is painful....if it gets down at all.

Has anyone else had food stuck for that long? I was especially freaked out as I also vomitted bright red blood and I immediately flashed back to my ulcer scares. I was soooo worried I may have them again! I've basically been told that if I ulcer again I will either be having a complete reversal or my pouch will be removed entirely and they will be attaching my esophagus right to my intestines....neither option is what I want.

Im going to say it again though....still NO REGRETS!

You had a scrambled egg in your sleeve for 24 hours, it DOES sound like a stricture. There is no other reason I can think of that you can't seem to digest a soft food like scrambled egg @ six weeks out. I would start puree stage again and up your protein shakes until you can get this situation assessed by your surgeon. At least then you will be getting in some nutrition.

Sorry I said sleeve I meant pouch. I saw that you are RNY
