Try papaya enzyme. Also, you shouldn't be eating normal food if you're stuck. Most people stick to liquids for a day or so to let things calm down as a stuck episode can really irritate your stomach/pouch.

Reverie - I got stuck but was not too bad, just relaxed, meditated :rolleyes:, convinced that stubborn piece of broccoli to go down...

Entire episode lasted maybe 3 min. No vomiting, BPing. A lot of tiny burps and little slimming.

Question for the future (hope never again) Should I switch to liquids for a day no mater how mild the stuck episode is?

THX for advise!!

Liquids probably wouldn't hurt for a day or two. I had a bad episode last night with pork & have to go easy today. Just do what your body tells you to do. We're all quite different.cool.gif

Maybe you could try exercising... I seem to be able to get "unstuck" if I take a brisk walk. I would quit eating anything until it was unstuck, but I can not drink a drop when I'm stuck, it comes righ back up. Home someones advice works for you. I hate being stuck! Good Luck!

It is common for your stomach to get swollen after a stuck episode...That is why you may feel that the food is still there even though it has passed...Since I often get stuck (due to being stressed and thus being too tight) I will consume liquids for a day or 2 after to help the swelling go down.... ;)

I doubt that you are still stuck you are probably swollen if you ate it last night. Dont keep putting food in there drink liquids for a few days.

In my mom's support group a few of the people have suggested pineapple juice to help things that are stuck go down. Something about the enzymes in the juice that helps break up the food.< /p>

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
