Bad couple of days food wise

[slimmerkay]

Had two horrible days as far as eating goes. Everything has gotten stuck - even fluids at one point. Then got dehydrated and ended up with a migrain

Just making a last attempt at eating for today.

I know we have these days for whatever reason but oh I do hate them

SNAP karen,
thats why I havent been on here much,
I have had things stuck,and then u try to losen with water..it hurts like hell!

 

[slimmerkay]

That's why I haven't been on much too. It just gets you down doesn't it hun?

 

[emma-louise]

sure does..it makes you wonder if we can ever eat normal again.
On sunday,everything I tried wasnt getting down comfortably so I gave up in the end and just put it as a bad day.
No day is ever the same when it comes to foods,I tryed sushi one night,it was ok,so I tryed it again..NO CHANCE!!

 

[slimmerkay]

I've found that. You think you're ok with something and then the next time you try it the old dumping sneaks up on you or it gets stuck horrible.

Im not doing well with fluids,and Im starting to think when Im not drinking well things seem to get stuck more,(our insides are lubricated enough)..lol
I dont know if its just me being stupid,but when I drink more Ive dont seem to notice if things get stuck!..

Food getting stuck,then having a drink is worse than LABOUR PAINS...lol

 

[slimmerkay]

Oh I know! And your first instinct if food gets stuck is to reach for a drink, but ouch ouch!!

 

[emma-louise]

LOL..we will get there together xx

I have days where I struggle too . . why one day is ok and another a total nightmare I have no idea! If I know it is a bad day though there is almost no point trying to eat at all! To be honest though I think the more I worry about it the worse it is . . some sort of tightening of the throat and pouch as a consequence of being nervous if something does not go down well? So hate the 'rabids' (the foaming drooling sensation when food doesnt go down well) that it does make me feel a bit panicky if something seems not to be going down ok!

Maybe we are just still very early days . . would like to know from the post oppers further down the line if this does change?

i must be so incredibly lucky, i dont think i have ever got anything actually stuck, i really feel for anyone who does though, i have drank too much too quickly cos im really thirsty and that was really painful, i did it a couple of times before i learned my lesson, lol. so i can only imagine how painful it must be with food in the mix as well. must just be the luck of the draw maybe, i havent really had any probs at all since day 1, ive had off days where i dont want to eat, then i feel yukky cos i need to eat, but thats a bout all.
i feel so sorry for you guys, good luck. big hugs xxxx
