I got stuck for the 1st time today, it was NOT fun. I swear I almost passout it hurt so bad. I was eating a left over peice of chicken that was tender, but I just did not chew enough. I have been so careful to this point for this not to happen and then wham it did.

I never got sick, just felt it and had horrible pressure in my stomach, I burped and slimed and finally it passed.

Now I feel sore and ache a little and my throat hurts, any one else had those feelings? I don't want to think I messed my band up with one careless mistake.

I'm sure you didn't mess anything up, but you might want to go back to liquids until everything calms down. Sounds like you caused some swelling.

Good Luck!

Totally have had that. Sounds like you irritated your esophagus. It will go back to normal soon, just as, for example, your arm would if you had scraped it on something... Just switch to soups and liquids for a meal, or until you feel better, but don't worry.

i am having a issue when i eat. most of the time the last couple of days right after i eat I am having really bad gas pains, and the port area is hurting. Noqw am worried that something really bad has happened.Has anyone elese had a problem like this i was banded almost 6 months ago.
