How can I tell if food is still stuck?

I ate something too fast and not small enough last night. I was in pain, tried to drink something and ended up vomiting. I was able to drink after that. I ate oatmeal, string cheese and yogurt today but when I tried to eat a small amount of meat this afternoon I vomited again. Does this mean that something remains stuck. I feel fine and don't feel like anything is stuck.

It is very likely that you were/are swollen from the episode. My doctor recommends liquids for 24 hours after a "stuck" episode. Otherwise you continue to irritate what's already swollen and this can lead to further complications. Now that you've had 2 episodes you are probably really swollen. Stay on a liquid diet for a day or two. Best wishes!!!

Thanks, I did email my doctor and he said I could come in to have some Fluid removed or stay on liquids for 5-7 days. I opted for the liquids for 5-7 days which is no problem for me. Hopefully this never happens again!!
