I think I have stricture and I am falling into depression....I need help!!

Hi. I am now 4 weeks post-op Roux-en-y lap and am completely miserable. I have developed an ulcer which I am now taking Nexium and my doctor believes I now have stricture. I cant hold anything solid down AT ALL! NOTHING.... I have this feeling of this ball in my throat, then I have to throw up - first flem or a mucus substance comes out. What is the procedure for stricture? Can someone out there please tell me this will get better. The depression is starting to set in, I cry at the drop of a dime and I can't even sleep at night... The good news is I have lost 20 pounds so far. Please dont bash me, but I'm at that "why did I do this to myself" stage. I NEED HELP. God Bless all of you!
