Chocolate can get stuck!!

[cindyg1212 0]

So here's a new one. Remember how I said that chocolate is my downfall and I wish it got stuck? Well, apparently I jinxed myself. I haven't had anything more solid than pudding since my fill last Thursday. Today my son gave me a piece of chocolate break-up that was softened. He loves chocolate too, all 69 pounds of him. Anyway, I was hungry and that piece went down so I had another. I had only taken in about 50 calories by then and needed some energy. All of a sudden, I felt the stuck pain and started pbing and sliming...for an hour! My son had an eye exam and I had to keep going into the bathroom at the opticians. Can't imagine what they thought was wrong with me! How embarrassing.

This was as bad as when I got stuck on shrimp. How?! Chocolate melts!! I have such a big gas bubble that comes back whenever I drink anything so maybe the chocolate couldn't get past the bubble. I had a bubble like that for 10 days after surgery so maybe it will go away soon. Right now, I'm trying to get down a little egg drop Soup and it won't stay down. I'll give this to Monday or as long as I can stand it. I have an appointment with the nurse practioner next Friday. Instead of another fill like she thinks she's giving me, I may need an unfill. I would like to hold out till then and get a few more pounds off but this is miserable! I'm gonna try till either I can't get down any liquid at all or go nuts! :thumbdown:

{{{{{Cindy}}}}} I hope you feel better. Girl you have had a time lately. Knock on wood the only real stuck I had involved a some new meds. It was a capusule. Dear Lord I thought I couldn't be more miserable.

Don't know if it's true but I've hear Benedryl helps when you have a stuck. Something about it reducing swelling. It would be worth the try, but I would do th liquid rather than the pills.

Wendy, I'm going to pick up some liquid Benedryl tomorrow. The stuff tastes awful and makes you sleepy but if it works I will happily gulp it down. This fill reminds me of how I felt a week after surgery. It was hard to revel in the weight loss because I was so miserable with gas pain. 10 days after surgery, I was in the ER getting IV liquids for dehydration because I couldn't sip Water without getting gas pain and pbing. An x-ray showed a big gas bubble above the band and I think its back. It finally popped a few days later which is why I'm trying to wait before calling the doc. The weight loss is great but why does it have to come with such a price?
