At three weeks things are going well. I've tried several foods I haven't had in months including pizza and a variety of items at an Indian buffet and I didn't have any swallowing issues with any of it. Like I said in the last post, that "block and release" sensation has been replaced with the "things are moving slowly, steadily downward" sensation.
But I also get, maybe four times in three weeks now, a sensation that my throat is tightened up and clenched. It lasts for several minutes then goes away. And today, when swallowing food, even soft oatmeal and yogurt for breakfast, my throat feels sort of bruised. It's not a big deal, just something to take note of and see if it persists.
In general I'd give the botox treatment a "thumbs up" at this point.
Pizza King... yet?
ReplyDeleteMaybe it isn't on your "must try" list.
I'm glad to hear things are going MOSTLY well.

Pizza in general and Pizza King in particular were on my "must try" list. I'm off pizza for now (the dough and cheese can be difficult to swallow) but I look forward to a PK Royal Feast some time after the surgery next month. It's the simple things in life. I could sure go for a PB&J right now.
