  10. Help!! Food Stuck And I Am Terrified

    Not stupid at all, yes you can breath. The pain sits in the middle of your stomach and it feels like someone gut punched you over, over and over.

  12. What Does It Feel Like To Get Food "stuck"??

    pwilliam2 replied to ktlynn447's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
    When I get stuck or have a blockage it feel like worse pain I have ever felt in middle on stomach. Drinking water or any kind if liquids make it 10x worse, so my band Dr. told me to take several tablespoons of meat tenderizer and walk as much as possible . This happen only twice in 7 years I have been band. Not sure twice in last 6 mo. I hope its not a sign for something else.
