I ate too fast help

[ldelay 0]

thanks folks for all the advice, I was hurting so bad I felt like I was going to die. I even spelled Zucchini wrong my mind was shutting down. I did try drinking and it hurt worst. I did a bunch of dry heaving and by the time I got home I drank the pineapple juice, but was afraid to eat anything. I will get the enzymes and keep them in my purse. i will work really hard at it not happening again. My lesson learned is do not eat lunch anymore at my desk in my cubicle, people will come up and ask questions that will get you worked up you don't think about how your eating and don't chew well enough. I have to take time for me to eat in peace.

It's very thick saliva that comes up when something is stuck. I'm not exactly sure what causes it, but it can be pretty gross.

Sliming is cause by your body producing mucus to try to get the food out that's stuck .Its trying to lube you up ( for lack of a better word) so it either goes out or down . LOL

Nice huh

Hey Mindy,

I am still waiting for my insurance approval. It should come any day one way or another. Anyway, I was wondering about that papaya enzyme. What does it do for you? I have been having some non-band stomach issues due to eating the wrong kinds of food, like my meat is taking a long time to digest. Not sure if my body got use to the chewing and then I did not do it enough or what, but needless to say that is why I am up right not talking to all. Just wondering if those enzymes will help a non-banded stomach. I am definatly going to have some for after the band. Emilie

You are probably much better by now, but I have had this happen to me a couple times although I have't had my first fill. Due to have it on Sept. 15. Anyways, the couple times it has happened to me, I have found that laying back as far as you can without laying down, relaxing yourself (I know it's hard to do but possible) and taking long deep breaths helps out alot. Hope that helps if you ever have a "next time"

The enzymes honestly , i am not sure what they do or how they work ?

I heard it has something to do breaking down the food. SO you might try it and see if it helps you now ? It cant hurt ?

HTH

I'm sure all is fine by now. Last night I did pretty much the same thing. Not too sure if it was eating too fast or it might have been the first Tomato I had tried to eat. I felt terrible, it took probably an hour before I started to feel better. Guess we are all in the learning process.

My nutritionist said to keep some Adolf's meat Tenderizer on hand and mix a little bit in warm Water to help break up the blockage.

Thanks folks for all the support. I had a return incident two mornings later after I took my morning medicine. this time the BP was immediate and I threw up took hours to stop hurting, I think it was my Calcium pills which I have been cutting in half and had no problems with until that morning. I hate thing BP thing about as much as I hate the pain. I now have pineapple juice and meat tenderizer in my desk draw.

My doc said that two extra strenth Tums were enough Calcium for the day, and you can chew them up. I haven't had any problems with them, so that might work better for you. Good luck!

I take chewable Calcium from Walgreens. It is only $10 for 75.

What if you have been sliming for several days???? I have been sliming since Thursday.............No fill yet! I went on Clear Liquids on Sunday and I still have that foaming type spit that just sits in my throat. What is wrong with me?? I continue to spit even after just Water and ice?? I can't still be stuck from my last meal on Saturday can I??? I am schedule to get my first fill tomorrow and I honestly don't know if I should or not! Please help!!

Pooh -- I'm glad you're seeing your doc tomorrow; I'm sure s/he will want to know about the sliming and can make a decision about the fill. Good luck and let us all know what was going on.
