tlynn4love 48 Posted August 9, 2013 Every time I have either one. I get this crazy pain in my chest, my pouch hurts and I feel like I need to vomit. I'm not going to try it any more. Those episodes last like 10-15 minutes and are awful. Why does this happen? All I had was a corner piece of a slice of turkey deli meat this time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Happens alot with chicken and turkey in some people. Wait a few weeks and try again. 1 tlynn4love reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
terry1118 1,274 Posted August 9, 2013 You're lucky it only lasts 15 mins. My fist time lasted 2 1/2 hours. :-p Jeepchick is right. Wait a couple weeks and try again, but do it cautiously. My surgery was May 30 and I still can't do chicken, turkey or tuna. I can eat eggs and fish (except tuna for some reason) every day. :-) 1 tlynn4love reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Flmomof2 9 Posted August 9, 2013 I have the same problem with hard boiled eggs if there's not enough mayo. It's just too dry & gets stuck - it's a horrible feeling... 1 tlynn4love reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ajustice 484 Posted August 9, 2013 I may never eat chicken again. Every single one has been a disaster. My nutritionist told me to wait awhile and try again with dark meat..idk tho cause I have developed this serious aversion now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LeticiaHuggins 177 Posted August 10, 2013 I'm 4.5 months post op and I'm just now able to handle chicken and turkey. I still can't do ground beef... But I can do premium steak. chicken just didn't go down right and it didn't even taste good. What I did notice is I'm able to eat marinated chicken tho and also oven roasted. It has to be super super moist. ~Leticia **HW: 259**PreOp: 216**SURG: 3/21/13 **Discharged @: 221** 4.5 mons post op.

But I can eat steak and jerkey fine. It's cause I can cook the steak medium. And the chicken has 2b fully cooked. The longest episode I had was 14hrs. I don't even try 2 eat the breast any more only ground or deil chipped thin. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
