Help Lump In My Throat



Recommended Posts

I ate some pepper steak for lunch yesterday and every since then I've had this feeling like something is stuck in my throat. I've tried to drink Water, I tried to make myself throw up, and still had this feeling. Somebody please help tell me what to do!!! This is the most uncomfortable feeling ever! ????

Sorry to hear that. Probably the steak is long gone but possibly you aggravated the throat tissue somehow and there is some minor inflammation. Maybe that steak wasn't well chewed or just the spicy pepper didn't agree with you.

You might try sucking on some ice. The cold ice will ease inflammation.

Yeah I've been freaking out cause when I woke up this morning it felt worst. I know that if you eat too much you can block something. I'm just worried now that it maybe something serious.

Likely OK since you can breath (thankfully) and swallow. I'd say watch it for a day, but DO NOT be shy about contacting your MD to check it out if it does not improve OR if it gets worse!

I would try the ice if it's in your throat. Keep trying Water and if it doesn't go away today I'd definitely call your doc. If it is a blockage you don't want it to sit there too long. But blockages are fairly uncommon for sleevers.

A peppercorn mightve sat in one place too long and given you a little inflammation. If it doenst get better soon, you might need a swallow study.

Thanks all I'm going to go to the Emergency room. It may not have anything to do with what I ate. A friend said it might be tonsillitis because it's sore and swelling.

Try this,

Take a 1/4 teaspoon of meat tenderizer in a very small amount of warm Water and sip it....meat tenderizer is made up of papaya, so you're safe doing this. This should help you within an hour......Trick from my dietician...

Blessings to U

Numenow :rolleyes:

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?
