Sunta 5 Posted June 28, 2006 I would say that if it went down and you have no signs of a PB, it probably passed into your large stomach and you will be fine. The concern for gum I believe is that it could get trapped in the stoma, which you would almost certainly feel. If you feel fine, you probably are. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
juliegeraci 7 Posted June 28, 2006 You are probably okay if you don't feel it. You don't have restriction yet since you haven't had your first fill. You are probalby fine. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Paulax 8 Posted June 28, 2006 I'd say drink plenty of Water, but what did the doc say? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
