Anyone had a problem with food backing up your esophagus?

I am 3 1/2 weeks postop lap RNY. I haven't had nausea or vomiting but I can only eat less than 1/4 cup food before I start feeling food backing up my esophagus. Of course, I stop but I can't get in near the nutrition they tell me I should. I did contact my Dr. and they may have me come in (a seven hour drive) to do an upper GI etc. to check the outlet size. I am not sure it is necessary.
