What do I do when a piece of food gets stuck??

Pray it doesn't last long and becomes unstuck. If its a bad stuck, you might have to call dr for a slight unfill, or for a few days go back to Protein shakes and fluids until swelling goes down.

Whatever you do, do not drink something to try and get it to move.

My Dr told me that and I didn't listen. Bad mistake.

My stuck episodes have only lasted 10-15mins, lots of spitting slime and a few PB(productive burp).

Good luck

Not to be gross it became so painful I needed to throw it up. What do I do now?

Sip Water and eventually your esophogus will fill up and float it back up. Stay near the sink or keep a bin handy. Less painful than vomiting and no stress on your band

Oh yeah, don't try to eat anything solid...drink some warm tea or broth and baby yourself and you're band until the swelling goes down.
