"stuck" Question

Hi - to my knowledge, I've never gotten anything stuck so in wondering what it feels like. Every now & then, when I take a deep breath I get a pain around my band area. Is that being stuck?? I've never vomited or PB'd. I had my WLS on 9/11 and have had two fills (5 cc total in 11 cc band).

Thx for any help!!

You will know. For me feels like something stuck in throat but really in stomach. As soon as you take a bite and feel uncomfortable make sure to stop until goes away or will be worse. Drinking makes worse too. I have an 11cc band too and have 10.5. I didn't feel much until 10 and still not green zone but everyone is different:)

Agree with the other poster. You'll know when you're stuck!

yes you will know, you may get a saliva build up, flem and a slight pain in the chest..walking will help, raising your arms, or bending over the toilet as the last rescource..if you have not felt the need to spit or do any of the above, you have not been stuck..lol..just remember to chew, and small bites..which gets me grrrr...

have you ever gotten a pill stuck or bread? its a very uncomftable pressure right at the under wire of a bra alittle to the left for me. chew chew chew your food specially meat....line dancer

Thx everyone. I had a piece of cheese on a cracker... Perhaps I didn't chew it as well as I should have! Good feedback on the stuck issue - kinda like "what does a contraction feel like"! You'll know!

From my experience it feels like a brick sitting on my chest.

Maybe 2 bricks!
