Small amount got stuck, long after effects



Recommended Posts

So about an hour ago, I finished off about 3 ounces of bone pork chop. Everything was cool, no problem, then I had a small bite of sweet potato and then all hell broke loose. Got stuck, slimed a bunch, and have been sliming/vomitting for the past 45 minutes. I thought I had got it all up, but it seems every 1-2 minutes my upper stomach clenches up and I can spit up a bunch more.

Anyone experience anything like this and how long does it last? This is the first time in 4 months since getting banded of having a reaction like this, first time throwing up and everything...

Yep ! Drink some Water, it will either go down, or it will flip around like a washing machine (THAT"S WHAT I CALL IT) and all come up. Regardless you will be swollen, so stay on liquids for a few days. Once the water brings it up, continue to drink until you feel it clear all the way down. That will unplug you. USE WARM WATER ONLY ! and could have to repeat until you can swallow watter.

Yeah, I wound up crouching on my knees with my butt as close to the floor as I could get it, and I felt something in my stomach push down I guess into my intestines. I think I'm good now.

The washing machine is a perfect analogy, spin cycle ! Thanks for the advice...

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
