I know I'm not supposed to chew gum.....but I do.  Have ever since I was about a year out....so for the past 3.5 years.  Never swallowed it........until today.  Should I be worried?

I have been real busy the last couple of days and just now geting around to catching up. It sounds like you and I did the same thing. About a month ago I had 1/2 piece of stick gum in my mouth and moved it around in my mouth to be UNDER my tongue in order to take one of my evening medicines. Yep you guessed it. the tablet didn't go down so I took another little sip of water and the gum moved and I swallowed the tablet and the gum. Of course I used a few experlatives and said I don't have time to go get this gum picked out of my pouch. Well so far, KNock on Wood, I have not had any problems. So maybe someone can give us a few pearls of wisdom of what to look for as in if we start to have complications!!!
