STUCK!!!

I am SO STUCK! The night before last I ate some brisket and I guess I got stuck. The next morning I couldnt keep Water down. I tried taking my meds (before I knew I wasnt going to be able to keep anything down) and throughout the day I was spitting up and literally throwing up (the SUPER PAINFUL HURT YOUR BAND KIND OF THROW UP) at some point when i was throwing up little pieces of my pills were coming up too. All water I try to drink comes back up.

Today I am DYING OF THIRST!!! I cant keep anything down. I have tried drinking hot water and I keep spitting that back up. I wonder if there could really still be brisket stuck in there or if my stomach is now so swollen from all the throwing up that everything just needs a rest.

If yall have any remedy please post!!!! Thanks!

If you can't keep anything down your band may have slipped. I'd call your doc ASAP!

OUCH!!!! Yes things are very swollen right now. It is possible that there is still food stuck in there. I use Papaya Enzyme tables I get them at Wal-Mart. I chew 4 and it helps to digest the food. I have never been where you are exactly. You do need to rest the throat, but you got to get that stuff moved. Try some deep breathing to relax and gulp air to try to burp, this may dislodge the food. I also do some stretching backward to get movement. Sip, small amounts of warm water, less than an oz every ten minuets or so. You really need to stay hydrated, but DO NOT TRY TO EAT! If no relief by morning you need to see the doc for an infill. Good luck.

If you are not better by AM call DR and get in there ASAP.

If you cannot keep water down call your doctor ASAP. Even if after hours.

I would say try again at drinking small amounts of warm water. When you swallow, you want to try to get each swallow to stay down. If it comes up by itself, then I understand that there is nothing you can do. keep slowly drinking the warm water until it pushes the brisket threw the pouch, and you will feel it drop into the stomach. Could hurt, and maybe not.

If it works, then drink another glass of water to make sure it's empty.

Don't eat anything.

If no luck call your Dr. or go to the Hospital E.R. where you had your surgery.

buy papaya enzymes. theyre really cheap pills i take ne time i get stuck.

I just got done with my own stuck episode. It took a little time, but I followed my own advice, and it's clear. Swollen, but clear.
