Hi my name is Daisy and I currently live in the States. I had my surgery on August 23rd (gastric bypass). I have been following this site for months before I decided to have the surgery and I have to tell you guys are great advise givers and soo welcoming! I have lost 60 pounds since my surgery which is great but unfortunately I have issues with scaring in my esophagus. I've has a ballon dilation 2 weeks ago and according to my doctor it was pretty bad. For a few days after the surgery I was okay but now I'm constantly throwing up and the pain when I eat is horrible! I'm having another ballon dilation on the 27th of this month and I pray it work out for me! Anyways I was wondering if anyone up here ever had this issue and how long it took before it got better!
