Miserable this morning
I'm so sorry you are going through this. I've had two strictures and they are no fun. Fortunately the fix is quick and easy and you'll be feeling right again in no time. Both times they fixed my strictures by inserting a tiny balloon and inflating it to stretch out the area that's closing up. They do it via upper endoscopy so no incisions or anything. Let us know how you are feeling after the procedure. Good luck!

How are you doing now? What did they do for you , to cure the problem? I had my RNY 3 days before you and a week ago I started the foamies... It feels like I have a BIG bubble , I burp and all the foamies comes up....It doesn't matter what I ate or drink( even water) will trigger it... I am on phase 3 of my diet plan which is suppose to be soft/pureed foods but i'm afraid to try anything but liquids yet. Hope u are feeling better.
