My pride. I had to swallow my pride more times then I can count over the last 3 years of this experience. And it is not over yet. I am waiting for skin removal and my pride is being called into question again as I show my body to the professionals that are going to help with the surgeries.

I accidentally swallowed a pill and wasn't supposed to for 6 weeks. That sucker hurt too!

I was only a little over a week out when I did it...

Not a mistake on my part, but the unaware nurses at my hospital gave me a pill post-op the day I had surgery. I was freaking out. I was told it was fine and double-checked that my doctor approved it, they said he did, but he didn't...

I accidentally swallowed a chewable Vitamin and ended up in the ER. the Dr said to drink some Sprite (or any carbonated) drink and it would dissolve the pill. Not sure about the cherry pit though. But yes it hurts!

Thanks for the tip. It finally feels like it is making its way down. It has taken all day. It made for an uncomfortable day.

My pride. I had to swallow my pride more times then I can count over the last 3 years of this experience. And it is not over yet. I am waiting for skin removal and my pride is being called into question again as I show my body to the professionals that are going to help with the surgeries.

Wishing you the best! I agree with you. This no easy journey. I feel that way with going in for revision after having complications. I have finally gotten to the point of not caring what others think. Yes, I had surgery and I am still obese for many reasons. The insurance coordinator is not very welcoming and treats me like I failed not really understanding why... This whole journey is filled with humbling experiences, realities and some tears...oh and swallowing cherry pits!
