Throw up

Had a bad stuck episode had no choice but to stick two fingers down my throat and throw up now I know it's never good to do that but scared i may have damaged some tissue.

I don't regret any decision in my life because at the end I will make it work

I just had surgery 12.20 and threw up yesterday. I called my surgeon, he was worried about becoming dehydrated

Call Ur Dr tomorrow if u r still having issues. Hot tea will help settle your pouch.

yes hot tea will help. I'm six months post op and have had my share of stuck episodes and puking. Never have had to make myself throw up, it just comes up either PB'ing or just plain throwing it all up. Anything warm or hot like that will relax the band. Also you need to take it easy with food intake for 24 hrs, usually liquids for 24 hrs or mushies/soft foods. Good luck and take it easy.

my lap band surgeon told me to keep pineapple juice on hand; drink it for stuck issues . . . it works!

What does the pinapple juice do

The enzymes in the pineapple help break down the food. Although sometimes nothing works if its stuck bad enough.
