Called doctor
who is on call for Dr. Miles and he kept acting like its very unlikely of getting a pill stuck at almost a month out and I'm like I've been having this trouble for a week now but this today is the worst, so he tells me to try and eat a little piece of light bread and if anything is stuck it will go on down. Told me if that doesn't help to go to the hospital and let them take x-rays but he was pretty sure that nothing was closed and he just came saying at a month out. All I know I'm still in pain at 5 hrs later and I tried sipping some broth and it came right back up. My sugar is down to 82 which is good but its because I took insulin this morning and have had nothing to eat. I really don't want to go to the ER and have to wait for hours like I always do if this isn't nothing to worry about. Any thoughts?

Cindy,
I hate to hear you're having problems! I was thinking...how about no solids for at least 24 hours but instead try some hot miso soup (kikkoman brand has the most powdered tofu and you don't taste it but you get a lot of protein from it).....it tastes awesome and it might take down whatever is giving you the issue without thinking that it's a solid....possibly a stricture i****ting you...maybe the miso could help either way.... so keep us informed...we don't want to hear of you going to the hospital unless it's completely necessary!

Thanks T but my pastor is on his way to take me to the hospital I just don't feel like driving and my son is out of town. I tried the bread like the doctor told me and it went down but oh what pain I had. This has been going on for 6 hrs and I have to get some relieve so rather find out now if its something serious than to wait until my doctor appt on Tuesday. I've had nothing but liquid broth and two sips of a protein shake besides the little piece of bread and it just hurts and I keep having stuff come up.
