How to eat after a stuck- would love some adivoce!

I'm slowly but surely learning how to eat with my band after each fill, although I do find one problem. If I ever do get stuck which is thankfully not that often, but does happen from time

To time...I'm unable to eat anything the rest of the day. I throw everything right back up no matter how mushy, even a smoothie! Does this happen to anyone else? & any tips on eating after you get stuck?! It's not fun especially if I ever get stuck early in the morning and then having to go a day without eating. I'm know my band is just swollen from the stuck but any advice would be greatly appreciated! :)

As I've posted before(and with links) Nsaids cause the lining in our stomach to breakdown, making ulcers easier to develop. This is caused by the drug being absorbed into our blood stream. So, pills or liquids are both just as dangerous.

Exactly what my doctor told me..... At one point, after he did a TNE, said that I could take ONE Advil, once in awhile....if I absolutely needed it. I asked him about liquid, and he said there is no difference when it comes to the band. He ALSO said that if I'm going to take an Advil, to take Pepcid or Prilosec as well.
