Well' date=' I had always used pineapple juice for a stuck. But, had a stuck episode a couple weeks ago, my son, suggested cola, tried it. and iT works like roto-rooter, cleared up instantly!! pineapple juice made it come up, cola wooshes it down. He had been to Spain and met a nurse who worked in a band doctor's office. This is what she said they used for stuck incidents.) I now have a large cola in my cupobord for emergencies!! Best of luck to all stuck folks! Karen[/quote']

This made me laugh a bit because it reminded me of my job. I'm a nurse and on all the units they keep ginger ale stocked in case one of the patient's g-tube (feeding tube) gets clogged. If all conventional methods of unclogging a tube fail we break out the ginger ale and it busts right through

I've tried both papaya enzyme tablets and pineapple juice. For me, both are hit and miss. Sometimes one or the other will work

Just keep in mind that pineapple juice coming up is NASTY!!!! It's hard to get that taste out of your mouth and throat!

I will have to try the cola next time I get stuck though.

I haven't tried pineapple juice. I am going to buy some and give it a try when I get the stuck feeling. I have only tried tiny sips of Water and rode it out. I haven't had a stuck for a while. I have been trying to really chew to make sure of that.
