6 weeks post tx and most things are back to normal. Taste buds are there, appetite is coming back, my main problem is swallowing. I have no problems with liquids but solid food feel like it gets stuck in my throat and sometimes there is some choking and coughing that goes along with that. I was curious is it possible to still be having problems due to swelling at this point or should I start thinking more along the lines of dysphagia and needing therapy or a dilation?
Another problem I am wondering if anyone has had. I feel like I have aged 20 years, getting up and down takes more effort. I actually feel like I am coming down with a flu or that I worked out to hard the day before. Bones and muscles ache and pop that never have before. Is this normal?
