first & hopefully last time stuck!

[ASM 4]

today I made every mistake. I ate leftover steak at lunch, while playing with my grandson, ate too much too fast and didn't chew well enough. That was at lunch it is now almost 8pm and I still hurt. I threw up but I ended up not going back to work and spent the afternoon in my recliner but it still hurts. I tried some sugar free icecream in the hope cold would help. I can drink, I can eat Jello, so it must not be stuck anymore, but the pain is bad right through to my back.

Any suggestions on what might help? Oh, I haven't had my first fill yet (that is Nov 9) but I seem to have good restriction anyway. I have been getting about 700 or so calories and lots of Protein and Water.< /p>

Try sipping some warm tea. Cold things might cause it to constrict more. Something hot should cause it to relax. Try liquids for a day or so, too. Until the pain goes away. Maybe some liquid tylenol would help with the pain and possible swelling.

Hope you feel better. I know the pain of being stuck. I went to the ER and spent the night in the hospital after being stuck. Getting shot in the stomach couldn't have been more painful.

the vagal (sp?) nerve may still be irritated due to the swelling that happens after a stuck episode....thats why your back may hurt. hope you feel better soon!

I agree with the PP about liquids for 24 hours....thats what my doctor always suggests.

Thanks, everybody. I tried tylenol and a warm drink, and it is better. I will try liquids for the next few days.

I have learned my lesson, nothing as distracting as my 5 month old grandson while I eat!
