Brief Answer:
Following answer to your query...
Detailed Answer:
Hi and thank you for asking!
I read your query and understood your concerns.
After reviewing your data my opinion is that your daughter symptoms are suggestive for stomach stricture, which is one of the most common complication of intevention.
If you were my patient I would recommend to do the following examinations to confirm / exclude the diagnosis of stomach stricture:
- barium swallow test
- upper endoscopy
If you have already done the above mentioned examinations can you upload the test results (in order to check them by myself)?
Meantime, I would suggest as follows:
- eat often and in small portions
- avoid spicy fatty food
Hope this will be of help!
Wish you health!
