I am three years out and have yet to swallow a capsule since being sleeved. Do any of my fellow sleevers take capsules? I was told by my doc that this was forbidden, however, I've read other literature and heard from other sleevers that they do take capsules quite successfully. I was recently prescribed meds that only come in capsule form and I'm suppose to start them tomorrow. I'm so afraid of the capsule getting stuck. Has anyone had this happen? Please advise this nervous nelly! Thanks!

I'm 15 months out now and I've been taking capsules since I was about 10 weeks out. So far, no problems.

I tried to take one this morning and it got stuck in my throat for a bit. I'm fine now after taking some honey and peanut butter, but I'm thinking I won't want that stress on a daily basis.... I may just have to be creative.

I have been taking Nexium in capsule form since right after surgery. I have also had antibiotics since surgery and have not had a problem taking either of them.

I was allowed to swallow pills whole 3 weeks out.

I take supplements in capsules and pills all sizes, sometimes four or five at once. I'm a good swallower. That's my whole problem!
