I'm sure you have tried the following but i'll tell you what I do. I walk (alot), reach for the top ot a door frame and ssttrreettcchh....and while stretching I take deeeeep breaths. and I also try a few papya enzymes. and if you still can't get it to pass, bend over and cough till it comes out. make sure you do a day or two of liquids either way...good luck!!

How weird....I also had steak tonight. Took 2 bites and I was stuck for about 15 minutes or so....and I actually threw up. Throwing up was a first for me...but boy what relief!! I skipped out on my steak and had a peanut butter sandwich! Being stuck like that is not a pleasant feeling!!! Glad I was in my own home....:smile:

I read in a thread before and has worked every time for me. Cluck your left arm like a chicken! Seriously, put your left hand under your armpit and move your elbow/arm up and down like a chicken. Today I was a little stuck and swear I heard the piece "pop" out from the band to the lower stomach. Good luck.

lol Sabrina...that's pretty hilarious. Imagine someone doing that at a restaurant!

Thanks banders...Well its lasted for about 3 hours...It is back to liquids today as I know it is tight and swollen. I ended up having the dry heaves which made my stomach swell..I can feel it.....Even water is a little tough going down this morning......So i won't do anything but proteinshakes and liquids for the rest of the day....Thanks
