What does PB stand for?

I have seen people state that they have PB'd. Is this where something gets stuck?

I have recently had a very unpleasant feeling when I forgot to chew properly and had a feeling of something being stuck for a minute or so, very painful. Thank God it passed fairly quickly.

  • PB is a productive burp. As it produces the food you just ate. It's not the same as being stuck- stuck is that icky feeling of a golf ball.

Thanks Leena, that really makes sense. :wub:

Being stuck can lead to a productive burp.When I'm stuck, I get PB a few times before getting relief.

Its like when a baby spits up, can't control it, it comes up whether you want it to or not.

If you get stuck in a restaurant, be prepared to run to the restroom or have a few napkins.

ps. I carry plastic grocery bags in my car, when I'm forced to eat and drive.

I try very hard not to get into the situation of driving and eating. Not pretty, lol

I have a few of those blue puke bag things from the hospital just in case. One at home, one in the car and one in my purse. :-)

One time I had to sprint to the restroom at a restaurant and Lo and Behold, a line....I literally slammed into the men's room and spit up. Soooo not fun.

I have had only 1 episode in the last 6+ months and I'm happy to leave it that! I was at home, but after a stressful day and the security tech asking me asinine questions while I was eating I swallowed a piece of pork and boy oh boy it was NOT pretty, but after hearing me get sick in the bathroom he didn't have any more dumb questions!! :P
