What are the symptoms of a stricture compared to maybe just eating too fast or not chewing well enough.

When does it become an emergency?

Hi JJ...I called the Dr. when I could not even keep water down.They admitted me twice...they had to strech out the new hole(anastomosis)sp? with ballons.I had sever stinnois(sp) stiff ness with closer both times.I became very dehydrated to the point of no urine output.Always call the DR.!!I posted something titles.."if you can't keep it down call the Dr";

Hope this helps...

I am seven weeks out and have closed up twice..I still am having trouble with puree food stage....water ,protien drinks ,popsiciles and salsa...thats about all I can do for right now.

I couldn't keep much down at all. a few drinks. Had a lot of pain. I had to be stretched out but only once and I have felt greta ever since. When in doubt call the doc!

It didn't feel very diferent at all. Mine became obvious when a sip of water was getting stuck and coming back up.
