Stuck feeling??/

[banded121512 2]

I've seen some people post about the "stuck" feeling. I'm wondering if someone can describe the feeling and what signifiance it has. I have been eating (10 days post now) and I keep getting this feeling of a ball like "stuck" feeling just above where my port is. Any ideas?

Oh you will know! You will feel it in your chest and throat.

For those of you who have had the stuck feeling....do you wait a bit to see if it passes or automatically try to make yourself throw up? I am terrible at trying to make myself throw up but I tried and failed. Now I'm kind of waiting and drinking a lot of Water. Thoughts?

[melissaw1976 26]

It usually passes in 10-30 minutes. When I have thrown up it was "easy" and painless. But, everybody is different.

[melissaw1976 26]

Try tiny sips of Water but don't gulp or chug. Sometimes the water helps move the stuck food along. But not always.

Easy to throw up but you can wait

It feels like you swallowed a matchbox car. Sometimes it passes but it hurts. Sometimes it jyst passes no hurt. Other times your mouth will Water then you have to bring it up which is easy because its still in your throat. I can just make like im gonna throw up and it just comes out. Im not sure if thats a pb. But thats what happens to me. I always get a stuck feeling in the morning if I try to eat before drinking something hot. Water goes down hard...But at night I can eat anything no prob...its weird.
