Did something dumb

[AprilHansen 109]

Today I'm two weeks post op so I started Vitamins. Keep in mind, I've had nothing but liquids for 3 weeks... Anyway, I plunked a Gummy Vitamin and a viactive Calcium chew in my mouth, chewed a couple of times and swallowed.

DUMB DUMB DUMB

I called my Dr and they advised me to drink hot lemon Water and all should dissolve and pass through soon. This is so uncomfortable and I was panicky so I had a hard time breathing. Has anyone else done something dumb and lived to tell about it??

@@AprilHansen Yes I've done many dumb things and here I am still living. Glad all is well, and thank you. Now I know not to do this post op. Do you have liquid Vitamins you can use for awhile?

[AprilHansen 109]

No but I have some nasty chewable tablets I can use for now. These things are taking forever to dissolve. I'll never do that again.

We all have it is just the part of learning. You'll get to know how to treat your new bypass....

I find that if I suck on the gummies for a while they get softer and mushier, then I chew, chew, chew. So far, not a problem. Thanks for the heads-up. Hope your feeling better

Hey im the queen of dumb so thanks for the heads up sounds like something I would do. Surgery in 15 days so I will chew chew chew and then chew again. Thanks. Val :-)

Just an update, it took about an hour of sipping hot tea, but everything is clear :-). Really scared myself there..
