Stuck Pretty Bad

[Dacoop 84]

I had one time before that I was really stuck and I got through it. I have had little tiny stuck episodes that didn't last long and got through them. But last night I got stuck OK I know I shouldn't have ate it but family was eating Chinese food and I miss it. I ate a wonton with the cream cheese in it. I chewed and chewed and thought I was good to go. I started to feel tightness and thought oh this will pass. So I was going around and cleaning up the house. I realized then I was not good. I had that sharp bad pain then. With my tiny stucks I could take just a couple tiny sips of pineapple juice and I would be fine. After two hrs of my body trying to throw up sweating and just plaining foaming bad my husband said he was taking me to the er. I said no call my sister which she works in the er and she told me to take a couple of sips of pop and the carbination of the pop made me burp majorly and it FINALLY WENT THROUGH! I was exhausted. I wanted to let you all know the tip of the pop to help something go through. I don't drink pop after surgury but if I ever get stuck again I will sip on it to help.

wOW...! Thanks for the tip. Sometimes if I eat to fast or it is just too big of a bite/swallow it doesn't matter how much I chew, It can get stuck.

It has been 2 years since my surgery, I very rarely get stuck anymore and I can eat just about anything. It took me a long time to learn to slow down, and take small bites and make sure it is chewed good enough. Now I hardely even have to think about it, it just seems natural!

Thanks for the tip with the pop! I would have never thought of that. I can eat everything except Chinese takeout..

.that's the only food that I get stuck on and not sure why. I can make Chinese at home and be fine but for some strange reason cannot eat takeout. I suppose that's not such a bad thing though
