Hi. I didn’t have that feeling post surgery but you are still healing. Try slowing down your eating and taking smaller bites. Of course you will address this at your follow up visit with your surgeon. I recall Jen’s husband (who has posted on this site) had difficulty swallowing post op and gradually improved. I hope swallowing improves for you as well.

I do want to share my current status. My surgery was in January 2019. I developed reflux which is a side effect of POEM. I was fine for several months and then it started. I was warned by my surgeon that reflux was a possibility. Now I am attempting to make dietary adjustments and have included alkaline water to raise my ph. I may have to return for a fundoplication procedure for the reflux if my efforts in diet change are unsuccessful. All the best to you.
