I was eating my lunch and I felt the tightness in the back of my throat..waited a little and then took a sip of Water...I could feel it just sitting there...actually intensified the pain a bit...not fun..

Well, anyway...I bent over to pick up one of the THOUSANDS of toys on the floor and the water rushed back into my throat and a little of it got into my mouth..

Ok...yes, that was gross...but it was also really kind of cool. Like an anatomy lesson.

Has this happened to you???

Rain

not yet! That's pretty gross.

It's kind of funny having you post to me...you're sweet!

Love you!

Rain

Awwwww, you too.

Mushy, Mushy!!!

My younger sister would say...PG13...ewwwww...

So, Sherilynn...has it happened to you???

Rain

i JUST LOVE THE FACT THAT YOUR LIKE IT WAS COOL BUT GROSS. That just cracked me up cause it is so me. man that was disgusting but neat kind of thing

Rain, it hasn't happened to me, but I have PBd water before.

Not with banding, although its been close, lol. Drinking while eating doesnt in general bother me and I do it, but if I"m the least bit blocked I cant.

But I lived with that daily for the last 5 months of my third pregnancy. I threw up in the clean washing once when I bent over the pick up the basket.

My first 2 pregnancies were fine, I'm nice and tall so no huge cumbersome stomach, no stretchmarks, push out a baby in 40 minutes! Easy. But the third, ugh. She was breech and lodged in my chest more so than my abdominal cavity. I didnt need any maternity clothes till after 30 weeks, my stomach stayed flat (well as flat as a stomach is for a 100kg person!). But the reflux, heartburn and inabilty to breath was simply awful, I had to sleep sitting up and if I bent over I threw up.

And eating wise it was EXACTLY what being banded was like, get hungry, eat half a cup of food and be stuffed. I lost 10kg over that pregnancy.

Hasn't happened but I can't drink if my band is stopped up. If I do, I get this moment of "uh oh" tingly feeling, like the odd nothingness sort of tingle you get in the split second between when you stub your toe, and when the pain kicks in. No pain yet, but you know you're in for some badness.

Then the pain kicks in.

Maybe next time I should just bend over and see if I can get it to flow back into my mouth. That would be preferrable to the pain++.

I wonder if Water that has sat on top of esophogeal food takes on any of the flavor...

Hasn't happened yet, but with today's fill I am tighter than I have ever been. Trying to drink water, and maybe I won't bend over. I can barely swallow spit at the moment.

It happened to me one awhile ago. I was spacing out and for a moment forgot i had a lap-band and drank juice really fast even though i was kinda "stuck". I PB'ed so much juice, burped, i don't know it was so nasty i thought my stomach blew up.

Needless to say i don't space out anymore when i drink

No this hasnt happen but I wouldnt mind if it did. Just to let me know the band is still there and doing its job.
