got stuck for the first time



Recommended Posts

So yesterday, I had to go into work earley. It was too close to Breakfast, and I was not hungery, But I was not going to be able to have lunch. So I had a hand full of almonds to hold me till dinner. Those almonds turned into an "elephant sitting on my chest plate". I sipped Water till they desolved and went down. I thought I chewed them up good and I only ate one at a time, but they got stuck anyway. I dont think I will be having almonds again soon.

it has been over 4 months for me and i am still afraid to eat nuts. i love almonds, but don't want to get stuck. drink warm liquids for a day, it should get better.

Well, I did an even bigger no no. Went to church potluck last night, did not eat much, but had a small amount of Pasta. It got stuck, had air in there, felt like I just had surgery severe pain up in my left shoulder, got the chills and was in lots of pain for about 8 hours. I'm afraid to eat anything today! Still in pain today but mostly just sore. I didn't follow dr. orders after my first fill earlier this week.

Its scary when it happens the first time. Its trail and error from tjis point on. Somedays it will go down with no problems but the next day it wont.. I can eat Pasta with no problem but I cant eat bread, hot dogs, hamburgers and eggs. But I can eat tortilla chips you never what it will until you try it

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
