Hello,
I am two weeks and three days post my surgery. The first week I did fine, I had my protein shakes and water and was doing good. This Tuesday, I kept getting this sensation that something was stuck in my throat. Mind you I was only drinking liquid protein shake and water. I had an appt with my regular doctor for post op check up this Tuesday and he looked in my mouth(which is not down my throat) and didnt see anything. He said to still keep up with protein shakes but the feeling something is in my throat I cant drink it. So I have only had water since Tuesday. Thursday was the post op with the surgeon, he said maybe it has something to do with the breathing tube during surgery. Today I have been dry heaving and it wont stop, I feel like something is in my throat so when I swallow I start throwing up but nothing is coming up because Im not taking in anything. Today even the water is doing this too. I called the surgeons office and they were at lunch so left a message. No answer. I called the PA # she finally called back and I couldnt get to the phone, she said wait it out a few more days see if it stops. I cant put calories in my body and now its hard for water. I am tempted to go to the ER and have them put a camera down there to see what it is. Im so tired, weak, and frustrated. Has this happened to anyone?? Help....
