Kaylaspence93 6 Posted December 13, 2012 i am afraid that i am experiencing my first "Stuck" episode. I'm not totally sure on how it feels. But this pain I'm feeling is horrible. Does anyone have any tips on how to stop it or even let me know if this is what I'm feeling?! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Summerrain 520 Posted December 13, 2012 The food will eventually pass through, walk around and stretch your arms up. If it doesn't pass through it will come up on its own and you'll get instant relief. Be careful though when you eat again as you may have some swelling and irritation because of the stuck episode. You may want to do liquids for a day. My nutritionist has told me coke helps with stuck episodes, the bubbles make you burp and it's supposed to dislodge the food. Depending on what it is that is stuck liquid can also make it worse for example if its doughy type foods. 1 CHEZNOEL reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

honk 780 Posted December 13, 2012 chewable papaya pills may help digest the food.< /p> 1 CHEZNOEL reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
line-dancer 810 Posted December 13, 2012 warm Water helps. If you have ever got a pill stuck half way down or a piece of French bread that is what it feels like to me..it will get better but chew better and smaller bites will help in the future but this eill happen again. 1 CHEZNOEL reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kime-lou 648 Posted December 13, 2012 It does hurt!! Sometimes I try and force it to come back up, other times I will try and drink until it litterally floats up, sometimes I just walk and it passes. 1 CHEZNOEL reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lassie 247 Posted December 13, 2012 someone told me about Pinnapple juice and it works for me. I bought the six pack small cans and it works every time. hugs Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
2012 359 Posted December 14, 2012 Hey Kayla I just had my worst stuck episode yet tonight. Thank goodness I was with my dad and stepmom who has the lapband and can understand. We went to Texas Roadhouse and I spent like a 1/2 hour in the bathroom and it was horrible, worst paint I have had yet. I pb'd about 3 times and just did the pineapple juice (thanks Lassie) and now I'm finally relieved. That's what 3 bites of steak and 3 bites of sweet potato got me, still not sure what did it, but that sucked! 1 lassie reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CHEZNOEL 4,061 Posted December 14, 2012 It's the size of the bites, how well it is chewed, and even the type of meat involved. Some steak is drier and stringier than others. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
