thanks Trina

is it possible that you have a stricture?

i was struggling with fluids, and the dietician i saw said that i should not ever struggle with fluids, that was a sign there is a problem, so when i went for the gastroscopy the surgeon had to stretch the opening from 8mm to 15mm

could this be the issue with you? have you talked to your doc about it?

I could drink the fluids, if I wanted it. I just dont want it! I have to force myself. I have had a stricture a couple of times and had it stretched out so I know what they feel like. It's definiately not that. Just have no desire, ya know? Thanks for caring though Carrie!
