I'm just wondering, are there people out there who have never had a stuck episode?

I have never gotten stuck. I was banded on Jan 13, 2010 - and fortunately had none of the problems others have mentioned.

I consider myself blessed and am hoping that does not change!

Cheers!

I was banded 2/10/09 and I didn't have a stuck episode for many months .... until July 2009. But then I got a fill to 6.0 and every meal meant getting stuck at least once. After 3 months of it, I got .2 taken out and the problem stopped. I recently got filled back to 6.0 and I do get stuck every now and then but not like before.

I too had my surgery on February 10, 2009, and have never been stuck. After my last fill I've had increased discomfort from eating too fast, but that's all.

I've never been stuck, but I was only banded in early November 2009. I'm just now getting a glimmer of restriction, so I do get some discomfort if I eat too fast, though.

I was banded on 8/19/09 and until yesterday would been able to tell you I'd never been stuck. But yesterday, it happened to me. I hadn't eaten much but what I did eat didn't want to go down. I've had 5 fills and I'm at 7.5cc.

Never been stuck surgery was 10-16-09 sometimes if I eat to fast I feel bad but never stuck

Stuck is soooooo painful.. I NEVER want to go thru that again!!!

I was banded 12/09/09 and so far nothing stuck. I do get uncomfortable if I eat too fast though. I have 5.2cc in a 10cc band with really good restriction right now.

banded 10/14/09 and have 5.8 in my 10cc band

never been stuck....

however, sometimes if i eat too fast i get some pressure/pain in my chest and it lasts a few seconds
