Why can't I eat after total gastrectomy? Food feels stuck

This is a question to the overall community but first I want to provide some context. And please forgive me if it is a little long. I was diagnosed with Gastric Cancer April 2025 and also Iwas able to move to soft diet. since then my treatment was chemo, then surgery with a total gastrectomy, and then another round of chemo. Following surgery I started with a liquid diet after a couple days I was able to move toast diet and then gradually a little more substantial diet. As part of that process I would have times where I would start eating and then have to stop because it was like a valve closed and I couldn't ingest anything, this usually would take place after a couple of bites. I would regurgitate a little food but mostly phlegm. Things got better and that stopped for while. Over the last month this has resumed. Sometimes I am able to resume eating or drinking after period of time and other times it maybe several hours before I can ingest anything including liquids. I have seen where others say they get nauseous after eating, but I am hesitant to say I am nauseous. Now to My overall question is if anyone else is experiencing this and have you identified any triggers and things you have done to try and resolve this.

Good morning, I have recently finished my last Chemotherapy treatment after a total Gastrectomy. My Oncologist has brought up adding in immunotherapy utilizing Imfinzi. Is anyone familiar with Imfinzi and has anyone gone through treatment with Imfinzi? Thank you in advance for any information you provide.
