Dilation anyone??

Sorry to hear you are still not out of the woods. Keep on it until the problems are solved - you need to be able to eat and drink on a regular basis! Don't neglect yourself, please. I don't blame you for being apprehensive about a further procedure; I'd be worse, I think! But it is very important that the sickness, in particular, is sorted-out. If you feel any degree of re-narrowing, tell your team x

My surgeon saw me last week and said to contact him early next week, I know I will have to have another dilation but am delaying ! I am such a chicken!
 
Don't worry it is quick in the great scheme of things & gives such relief & good results. Far better than suffering continuously for weeks. Good luck.

Agree with Bellydancer. Wasn't pleasant for me, but would go through it again in a heartbeat if I needed it done as it certainly helped me.

Good luck x

Horrific sickness today :( I must get it sorted early next week. I feel rotten, which is typical seeing I am away to London tomorrow for the weekend. Feeling very fed up!

Hi, how did you get on on Friday? Hope it's made a difference xx

It was horrible BUT i can eat! :) now I think I am eating too much and the op has failed :( I manage around 4 tablespoons at a meal and even then I am not full.
 
Thats not too much quantity but it depends on what it is. U need high protein low fat & low carb foods
