Katie713 423 Posted May 14, 2012 That's what is referred to as the "slimes". I know it sounds gross and it is gross. Are you taking a PPI like prilosec? This happens when you are not able to tolerate certain foods, and it is your body's way of eliminating the food from your stomach. Completely normal, but if you don't want this to happen, eat slower, smaller amounts, chewed very well. And if not already, talk to your doctor about a PPI to reduce acid.

enid 8 Posted May 15, 2012 I do tak a PPI every morning but my food gets stuck in my esophagus. I called doc nd nurse told me they repaired a hernia and sometimes that happens. I cant eat, really. I eat just a bit and food gets stuck nd i have to stop. So for mothers day i had fish nd spinash and it felt good in my stomach. I took leftovers for work nd ive been trowing up all day. Its just what u said cause thats what it looks like but i really take my time eating. I dont know, im really tired of this. My surgeon is like 28 hrs away but im gonna have to take the trip.
