3 months post OP still having trouble with food getting stuck.... ADVISE

I at even 12 months out, had a ton of issues. what became my best friend at meals was hot coffee, or for that matter anything liquid at room temp or hotter. I would even heat up a glass of milk, when I was finally able to tolerate dairy again. [ and it took awhile ] even now at almost 4 years out, every now and again, I still get what you described. at 3 months out, you are still taking baby steps on the recovery road. the new normal will come. give it time, it is slow in arriving. but will. right now you must, chew chew chew, and eat slow. it will get better.

Disgruntled this morning. 13 full weeks out of surgery..Here is the update dropped to only 20 mg every other day of omeprazole earlier this week which was down from 40 mg every other day. Woke up with bad heartburn for the first time probably since week 3 of post surgery. What is going on? I just had my second barium swallow test 3 weeks ago and they said no more reflux.
