Total Gastrectomy - Post

I am 75 male.I had a sub total gast.48yrs ago. I had ulcers( no cancer) I had gast.resection 36yrs ago.I did not have any more problems until June 2009 ,I had cancer with it going thru the and I was at a stage 3 High Grade.
I declined chemo and Sept 12th 2009 I was blessed by God and I am cancer free at this time.
I have mild COPD.
My post gast. has been rougher. I have a feeding tube in since surgery. I am taking 2100 calories  by tube.I eat some times orally but nearly every day I get a white stickey glub in my throat and I must throw up and only phlem until I have
a discomfort from the top of my throat to bottom of the rib cage.
My doctors have no answer.
