India928 81 Posted September 30, 2015 I totally forgot that we shouldn't chew gum and I just had a piece and I swallowed it. I know, I know, gross bad habit, but is what it is. I am 14 days post op. Should I be concerned. Oh lord, I didn't mean to, lost my mind for a moment. What do I do? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dar200 285 Posted September 30, 2015 Oh wow! Yeah, I would call the doc right away. Too many possibilities for problems there and he may have something to try to make sure it gets out of your pouch quickly. Good luck. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
