Drink something & see if that doesn't make it come up & out for a few minutes , you may slime but hopefully it will help & you won't be stuck anymore just a suggestion but make sure your by somewhere preferably BA bathroom by the commode so it will come up & out , hope things work out for you.

Hi, drink a couple sips of coke, or pineapple juice. I find if I drink it at room temperture it is best.

Ive never been as "stuck" as you are now, and everyone s different, but something hot to drink ( tea or cocoa) always relaxes the chest /stomach area for me, and that helps the food move. Also adding in a heating pad in the same area relaxes the muscles, and im not so tense, so I can breathe better and focus on getting unstuck. Let us know how it goes !

Hi guys. Thanks for your suggestions. Unfortunately the hot stuff didn't work. I believe this is a piece of bread stuck. I know I know. Big no no but I was just chewing it and then disposing of it. I also know, gross but I just wanted to taste it. ANYHOW I got distracted and swallowed it. Ugh. It had to come up immediately. I can't even get Soup down now today. My husband is taking me up to my fill center now. Going to see what's up. Ps. Im looking to be more active in here. I need support and hopefully I can help others as well.

Let us know how it goes. Chances are you are probably very swollen from the whole event. Taking out some fill will help and you should really take it easy with foods for a few days to let things settle down. Try staying with liquids and soft mushy food for a few days.

Thank you.

Just got home I don't even want to look at food. LOL

I feel raw and my stomach is gurgling so bad. I guess all that air I was trapping in there as well is moving around.

As soon as it was loosened I felt it drop into my stomach. Kinda gross feeling lol

She took out all 4.5 cc s and put back in 3 until Monday or Tuesday.

Thanks again everyone. :)

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!
