I don't.I'm usually hungry at the time it happens and I'm eating too fast.I usually let it finish then I will go back and eat alot slower.It's happened twice to me so far.

Are you kidding? I go back and finish my dinner. After that, I might have a hot cup of coffee, but it's basically back to business as usual.

If it is a retching PB that empties my pouch, then YES! 24 hours or more. If it is sliming, mouthfuls of saliva and other that if swallowed cause problems, NO. I put a coffee cup on my sternum, spit the offending material, and wait an hour or more for the stoma to clear. Then back to normal.

If it was just slime/golf ball, no. If it's a full-blown PB, just liquids. I don't eat anything until the next day.

No, I hate getting through the slimming though, then I drink warm tea, wait about a half an hour before attempting anything else

It depends on the degree of the PB and my hunger level. If it is bad, I may try to do liquids or at least purees for the rest of the day. If it was just a quick cough/spit of something that got stuck, then usually I continue eating... although I may avoid whatever food that got stuck.

Early on, I didn't wait, no. But I lived and learned, and now if I WERE to PB, I'd absolutely stick to liquids for at LEAST 24 hours. I've had the vicious cycle where inflammation comes on the heels of a bad PB episode, and it's WAY worse than avoiding it in the first place.

No, I don't do 24, but with the couple of terrible dry-heave vomiting that I've done exactly three times, I stuck with soup, and very soft foods.

If it was just slime/golf ball, no. If it's a full-blown PB, just liquids. I don't eat anything until the next day.

Same here..
