Texgirly 0 Posted March 31, 2008 (edited) As of tomorrow I will be 4 weeks post op and doing really well. This morning around 10:30 or so, like a moron, I thought I would chew a piece of gum. The moron part is that I ALWAYS manage to swallow the stuff. I was thinking about the gum, enjoying the mint mojito flavor when some folks walked into my office and we started working on some details of work. While mid-sentence, I swallowed the gum. It is 3:45 pm or so and I had no issue. Ate Chilk-Fil-a Soup for lunch, have had about 2 cups of Water and nothing. Did I get lucky and dodge a bullet this time or will I hear back from my friendly piece of gum later? And yes - lesson learned and I will NOT be tempting fate again. I am a by the book kind of girl and can't believe I did this in the first place. Edited March 31, 2008 by Texgirly Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wheetsin 714 Posted March 31, 2008 Usually if you're going to have a problem you'd know it within a relatively quick time. You may have gotten off lucky, unless it's clinging somewhere above your band. :thumbup: Truly lucky, I've seen people going for days with gum stuck...
