sHeLLaBee 130 Posted August 10, 2012 Yeah. That is a stuck that is just not big enough to be painful. Lettuce does that to me if I don't chew it up enough, because it lays flat, I guess, and blocks everything from going down. Give it a few, walk around. You can take papaya extract if you have it and it helps break it down, otherwise you may have to make it come up. =/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mdgarcia31665 0 Posted August 10, 2012 sounds like it. I've had my band for 4 years and sometimes things still get stuck. I find that this happens when don't chew my food extremely well, or when I don't crush or cut my larger medications. Sometimes if I eat something doughy, then take a drink of something; stuck! When you feel that you want to keep swallowing, and you are mucousy, go to the restroom and stand over the toilet like when you are going to vomit, you won't vomit, all the mucousy stuff will just fall out, it's disgusting but you will eventually become unstuck and feel better. DO NOT STICK YOUR FINGER DOWN YOUR THROAT!! Vomiting is a bad thing when you have a band. There is a very large chance of slippage from vomiting. Lean over the toilet and just open your mouth.

Grider 92 Posted August 10, 2012 I jump about a little thanks God no one has caught me at work doing it yet, but if it's mild it will drop in , if not out it must come.. the papaya pills are a charm.. I have noticed for me the sinus'allergy season is murder. Today i was able to eat just fine- Ate the same thing last week with my allergies going nuts- I couldn't swallow it with out getting stuck.. weird,,, but we learn as we go..

2muchfun 8,927 Posted August 10, 2012 First, please fill in your profile so we know you better. Makes it easier to make recommendations. Yeah, you could be stuck. So I posted this a few months ago but I got stuck pretty bad on some food(can't remember what) and I had just drank some Water prior to eating. So, I went over to a wall, stood on my head(with the help of my forearms) and the Water in my lower stomach pushed it away. Then the same liquid helped the food pass through my portal when I sat upright. Lesson learned? NOT! I chew and take much smaller bites now but I still get stuck about 3 times a week. Small episodes of stuck now so I'm not miserable like before. But I still get distracted and shove toomuch food in my piehole sometimes. tmf Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
