Thanks guys. My foamies lasted about 3 hours. I think i ate too fast. I won't be having pork again Any time soon! I will also be buying some gasx!!!

What are the foamies? I just had surgery on Monday, so I haven't experienced them. Doesn't sound like I ever want to either! :-)

It occurs when your pouch is empty, but you throw up anyway. The only thing to come up is foam - sometimes foam follows your having thrown up the offensive food. Despite the emptiness, you can throw up over and over again. It's painful at times, but miserable always. Gas-x is the trick - hope you never experience them.

Thanks for the info. Doesn't sound fun at all.
