Finally had a PB

[jbperry21 1]

Never have I been so glad to throw up in my life. For more than one reason actually. I feel like I've finally got the band. I haven't had any sliming issues or PBs or stuck food or anything. I ate something I shouldn't have and it got stuck. It hurt like hell, but i figured it would go down after a bit. No such luck. I coughed and there you have it. Thankfully I was near a trash can!

But I just have to say that I'm so glad that this happened, just so I know what to expect and I feel like I'm actually experiencing it and it's going to start working. I go back for another fill on Tuesday. I went today and after having waited for over an hour in the waiting room, I got back to my doc and he wanted to put me under x-ray (which he does every time) and they had already sent all the x-ray techs home, so now I have to go back.

Well, you are now an official member of "the pb club". Lets hope you don't experience them too often though, lol.

Sorry, what is a PB?

I'm so glad someone asked what a PB was, I have been reading about this "PB" and I haven't figured it out yet. I have just had my initial consultation and I am now doing my 6 month hoop jumping for the insurance but I forgot to ask what PB was - I always think of Peanut Butter when I see it and I know that's not it because I don't think folks would mind having peanut butter.

Smiles,

Patricia

Believe me, I don't want it to happen ever again!

PB=Productive Burp

It's basically if you get something that doesn't quite want to go down and it comes back up. For me, I coughed and everything that hadn't gone down came back up, but it isn't quite throwing up.

I'd rather have peanut butter! Thanks for the description. I don't want a PB either....

Is PBing considered the same as throwing up? Because, I too, cough, and PB. I don't actually "throw up"....the reason I ask is because they say if you throw up too much or even a little, there's a risk of the band slipping. Is this true for PBing as well????
