I wasn't feeling to well two weeks ago. My stomach was hurting everytime I eat or drink. I went to my Dr. office and they sent me to get a upper GI. the results was I have a lazy esophagus. lol

The NUT put me back on mushies for a week and work my way back up. While I was back on soft foods I practice on chewing and sipping slowly like reprogramming myself or should I say rehabbing myself. Its been awhole lot better since then. I'm getting pretty much all my protein in and liquids now. Our stomach and throat are so sensitive its going to take some time getting use too.

I know this wasn't of any help but the best of luck to you and keep us on the up and up with you.

If your not feeling better then you might need to head to the ER bu.

those first few week suck! just drink slow and sip, i lived off of hot ginger tea (no sugar that made me sick in the beginning), reg tea and egg drop soup, ( in your case maybe clear soup or miso soup), remember you have a new tummy and it may be swollen. feel better..

I had those same symtoms early on. It was a stricture. These are painful, but easy to fix. Best wishes for your MD visit.

Keep on climbing, Till I reach the higher ground
