I had the Nissen 3 weeks ago and I can only eat pudding, yogurt, cheetos, and pepperoni. I only eat half a cup at a time and if I try scrammbled eggs, mashed potatoes, even boullian, it gets stuck at the wrap and I end up throwing it back up. I don't understand how I can eat cheetos and pepperoni and not other things that have a similar consistency of pudding and yogurt. I chew, chew,chew, but I am really at a loss. I am also having heart burn (chest pains). Other than the issues with the food and the chest pains, my surgery has gone so far so good. I am taking my dexilant again, gastro surgeon said every other day, but I have to take them every day. I had this surgery cause the meds were too expensive. Now I have a hospital bill for over 14k and 44 dollars/mo for the pills.
I also drink decaf green tea all day long w/honey. I don't know if it helps, but it feels good going down.
