Ohh this is what it feels like....

I had my first "stuck" incident today. Pretty sure from eating too fast. That was fun....said NOONE ever. Ouch...I panicked a bit. Knew it was coming back up...went to the bathroom....coughed...and the foamy yuckiness was expelled. I haven't been able to eat since. I tried to eat a few pieces of deli turkey quite a bit later. No go! Same thing happened. I am standing here waiting for the knot in my chest to subside as I write this. Looks like I have a day of liquids to look forward to tomorrow!?

Yes, getting stuck is no fun...and FYI: Boarshead deli turkey caused the worst stuck episode I ever experienced.

It will be a good idea to be kind to your band for a day with a liquid diet...or at the least soft foods.

You want the body tissues and your band to have a chance to calm down and avoid additional stuck episodes.

It is through experience we learn...

this happened to me tonight.. not deli Turkey, but deli roast beef... nope.. never again.. I started hurting real bad in my chest, then it just felt like the food wouldn't go down or come up. mucus started forming and I went in the bathroom, and finally, out came the roast beef.

well, now I know what it feels like to be stuck! thank goodness I was at home and it didn't last long!

That sounds horrible! Thanks for the heads up and I will probably never eat deli meat again!!

I remembered this conversation as soon as I spit up the first bit.. yuck!

I probably didn't chew well enough, but still.. I doubt I will take the chance again. just a good reminder that my band is really in there. :-)
