Lightbulb SUGGESTION: when food is stuck!

by no means should this procedure replace the call to your surgeon but
its what you can try if something is stuck....and anything after that stuck
item is comeing up ....I am not a doctor or medical expert but it could help
in a crisis when people get things "STUCK"...it happens!!!

adolph's meat tenderizer; 1/4 teaspoon w/warm water (3oz), sip.... an hour later repeat.... meat tenderizer will break down later repeat.... meat tenderizer will break down the stuck food.

HOPE this dont happen to anyone but it does. SOMETIMES the stuck thing can happen to people developing a stricture. TRUST me when something is
stuck you will know!!!! USUALLY that piece hurts going all the way down and the food after it all comes back up. THATS why we have to chew chew chew! FOR me the first time i had this happen was about two months post op with steak. BUT i was able to dislodge it with throwing up sometimes not so lucky. OF course i had to go back on soft foods for a few days at the advice of my surgeon being i was early out and did irriate my insides a tad bit. I
had seen traces of blood when i threw up so i phone the surgeon.

Alt Weight Loss Surgery Insurance
Yes, you can often get insurance cover for your Weight Loss Surgery.
Our own Craig "Big-T" Thompson has been there and done that, and he's written an e-book about it.
