Xpost Back from California and have a question!
Hey guys-
Back from my whirlwind trip to a conference in San Diego...It went really well and it was hard to come back to the 30 degree temps of Boston for sure! Anyway, I wanted to pick people's brains...Not sure if you had read my post from last week...Last Monday I made the mistake of taking an uncoated cold pill that got really stuck in my chest...I vomited and had some foamies as a result, so on Tuesday I felt a bit rough...Since then, I feel like everything goes down a little "rougher" and haven't been able to eat the same way as I had before this "incident." Granted, not being able to eat as much can certainly be a good thing, but I didn't think I ate more than any other bypass patient before either...I have my one year follow up already scheduled for Dec. 11th (a little late due to the busy schedule)....Has this ever happened to anyone else? I'd had things get stuck before but those were foods and I felt fine the next day...Curious to see what everyone thinks?
Thanks!

well, i'm definitely no expert, but i take uncoated pills every day (even in the hospital) without any problem. hopefully your symptoms have passed by now!
