I swallowed my Gum a couple of days ago and I wanted to know has this happen to anyone else and did you have to do anything? I'm just curious.:tongue2:

If you aren't in pain, and aren't having reflux or anything - you are probably fine. I have read a thread on here about a lady who swallowed a piece of gum-they had her drink hot liquids to soften it, but it wouldn't go down. They had to go in and remove it. I have also read one where a woman had to get an unfill to let it go down. But they were both in pain - it was stuck. Keep us updated as to what happens. I think you are one of the LUCKY ones!!!

I think you are right I am one of the lucky ones for I feel no pain. I just think it's so funny how the smallest things that we never took a second thought of before we have to be mindful and careful now. Anyway, I will keep you updated on my progress. Thanks for your response.
