First "stuck" experience!!



Recommended Posts

OMG :wink_smile:

How awful was that!!

Last night I made my kids favorite, chicken and biscuits. I am on regular/soft foods, so the carrots, peas and bites of tender chicken in the gravy tasted great, until the freaking chicken got stuck!! I've had chicken once before with no trouble, I guess I was too hungry and didn't chew enough.

That is a feeling I don't care to repeat anytime soon. I had to get up and walk around, my poor fiance was so worried. It felt like it was going to come back up but wouldn't. I ended up taking a sip of tea and it eventually passed after about 15 minutes.

It was like I had swallowed a brick.

Guess I learned something! CHEW!!!!

Yes, I had the same issue with shrimp. My daughter brought home leftovers and I just threw one in my mouth. Not even thinking about the chewing part. It was the worst feeling I have ever had. Will not make that mistake twice. Things are going great now. Just waiting for my second fill next week.

Stuck is awful. I seemed to get stuck a lot between my first and second fill. I think it was the learning to eat slowly and chew really well part.

I noticed that if I let myself get too hungry I would not pay attention and then I would get stuck.

All part of the learning process, I think.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
