Projectile Slime



Recommended Posts

Ok I have read up on "PB" and "Slime" and I get it. Up until now I have been lucky not to have experienced either and I realize it was 100% my fault. :tt1:

My 15 year old had her tonsils out the other day and I have been kinda running on lack of sleep and good judgement. (She's having a hard time) My lack of judgement yesterday evening had me eating <not chewing> and walking around the house doing "stuff" then it hit, the PAIN from hell that increased with every millisecond. I couldn't swallow, heck I wasn't sure I could breath. A wee bit of panic kicked in, I paced, rubbed my chest, my DH rubbed my back and then I had a flash back to my *Party Days* "Lord please , If I live through this I will NEVER, NEVER do it again" lol :lol:

Without notice I was Linda Blair and shot saliva out of my mouth and to the tile floor <sorry gross> Then a peace came over me "euphoria" if you will. I was in a fog of pure ecstasy and delight when I was brought back to reality with the vision of my DH cleaning the floor and asking "Are you alright now?' < bless him> Lesson learned!!! :tongue:

So ummm is that how it always is? The slime? I had pictured drool flowing from my mouth to my neck and other body parts, not shooting out a large mass of yuck! Neither here nor there I guess, I lived through it, realized my mistakes and promised myself " I will NEVER, NEVER do it again! :rolleyes:

It is the same for me to. It just shoots out. Gross I know, but I to feel better when it's over, no more pain and pressure.

The euphoria...LOL I never thought of it that way but you are totally right. The praying, the I WILL NEVER DO THAT AGAIN...and the floating.

Yep that's about it. Welcome!

It depends on how bad it is. I have had projectile only twice but luckily in the bathroom ;0). Sometimes if I have overdone it but not terribly bad, I need to slime for a few minutes and it is slow.

What a great post :0) I love your writing style . . . it is one of those posts that keeps me smiling regarding the "joys" of band life.

Oh my. So now I have to worry about doing a Gila Monster imitation if I eat too fast (I've not had the pleasure of experiencing this sliming/PB thing yet)?

Wow. If I play my cards right, I just might end up on Letterman!! Stupid Human Tricks!! Woo hooo!

(Laurinda, your DH sounds way cooler than mine. I think Jonathan would've just stood there and either laughed or have been paralysed with uncertainty.)

Hey, at least it wasn't the windshield of the car, right?:confused_smile:

There are all kinds of sliming. Projectile being the one that will make you run, not walk away from people as quickly as possible.

You, grasshopper, have much to learn and experience.

There's the slow steady build slime and PB.

And the how not to have the toilet Water splash you in the face stance.

But believe it or not there's the returning to the table and looking at your plate and actually wondering if you should continue eating or throw it away debate. That's some real crazy stuff. You'll only decide to continue eating once or twice. Promise.

Oh Juli, your post had me in stitches. I do exactly that! PB in the toilet trying not to let the Water get me.....and then back to the table and debate with myself. I do usually just push the plate away, but a few times, I've continued, and back to the bathroom I went!

Ok I had the slime thing go on this morning on my way to work - I had some coffee at home - and made a scrambled egg - one teeny bite and I got the pain where it felt like things were stuck - and slimed at home a little - but it came crashing down in my car - can someone explain what this is about since I didn't overeat - was it becuase I drank something beforehand and I was already full????? The pain is finally easing up just now over an hour later - boo hoo it hurts!!!

Oh thanks for the info - I thought there was something wrong with me - this is a good lesson learned - stop when you feel the tightness - and I think I have reached my 'some sort of spot' - I am a Bandster!!!

I haven't had the "pleasure" of this experience yet. Been stuck and slimed a tiny bit, but nothing drastic. I go for my 3rd fill on the 13th, so I'm expecting it all to begin soon......

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
