My sleeve doesn't like.....

Toothpaste.

Oh my holy GAWD. Every morning it's... it's just problems and issues.

What unusual thing does your sleeve protest against???

I usually spit out the toothpaste. Just kidding- I know sometimes a little goes down. Not sure- maybe switch brands- are there any that are less strong tasting?

Don't eat much toothpaste here, either, but pear skins. I can feel 'em just sitting in there.

Exactly! Before, I could swallow a horse without a problem and now I get a pill in my mouth smaller than a pea and I gag and choke!?!? WTH?

I had already switched to Tom's, they have non- minty toothpaste and my GERD wasnt and now my sleeve is not sensitive to that.

Spaghetti sauce from my lean cuisine sent me running to the bathroom, at work, ugghh! Like PdxMan, Pear skins don't sit well with my sleeve, and almost any kind of bread sits heavy on my tummy. Although I did manage 1/2 a PB&J the other day.

I try not to swallow any, DUH... but I somehow always seem to swallow a little and OY. Dry heaving is so painful.
