No regrets but odd lump/cotton ball feeling in my throat. Flehm build up?

I had my sleeve surgery on 4/8/24 so I'm just over a month post op. Naturally, I've lost a significant amount, no pain unless I sneeze too hard (LOL), no vomiting, no cravings/hunger (which I know are normal). I'm on soft foods, but this odd sensation in my throat has been annoying the heck out of me, and sometimes triggers my gag reflex. I did contact my bariatric team and they had me double up on my acid reflux meds and of course cautioned me to make sure that I'm still taking small sips of water/small bites of my approved soft foods. Anyone else experience the weird feeling in their throat? I'm still sleeping sitting up as many mornings I have that gross flehm drainage (it is high pollen in my area).

Gastric bypass or sleeve? The sleeve is known to create issues with acid reflux. also, your stomach is not only tiny, but swollen right now. Healing. Therefore, give it some time. Everything probably bothers it right now.

I had the sleeve but thank you for the insight. I do hope that it goes away with time.
