hope your hubby is doing better...and yikes about the stuck episode...i know my day will be coming soon...i'm still eating way too fast...

Girl, i have had 2 in the last 9 months, but not hospital status, but you are are so right it feels as someone is cutting you

Hope your hubby is feeling better. Girl I chew forever, scared of getting stuck. You are right this is a lesson learned hope u can avoid getting stuck again. I cant imagine wht you went through, I bet 5 minutes felt like a lifetime.

I am so sorry to hear that your husband was ill. I pray everything works out for him. Yes, I do know the feeling very well. It's almost been 2 years since I was banded, and I should know better but eating too fast has caused me a lot of pain. Yes, I would advise everyone to chew until you feel like it's nothing left to chew on. It will save a lot of stuffering in the long run.

Sorry to hear about your husband and your stuck episode. They told me to use Papapya Enzymes if you ever have a stuck episode. They said you can get it at Walmart, but I haven't looked yet. I'm going to get some, just in case.
