Do I Need To Go To The Emergency Room?

Do you have any pineapple? Supposedly pineapple has the same enzymes as meat tenderizor. Eat a few SMALL pieces (after chewing really well) and it should help. I am not sure if just drinking the juice will work, but you could give it a shot.

Warning, if you DUMP on fruit, this may not be a good idea.

Goodness, I really feel for you! 

Two thoughts...Welcome to the Foamies!!  Most RNYers get them sometimes.  You sit and spit and spit.  After a while it just gets better.  Go with maybe warm liquids...Herbal tea, with lemon, Splenda, and milk.  Something like that.  Maybe put a oz of protein shake or a spoonful of yogurt or cottage cheese on the nightstand...have it in the middle of the night.  # 2.  Most strictures occur at about 3 week...So guess what??  Yeah, you might have one.  Very treatable.  I'll do a copy and paste in a minute concerning them.  I feel like I should post on strictures every couple of weeks for new post ops.  I'd talk to your surgeon tomorrow.  Just me.

Thanks for the post.  I don't think I have a stricture, because I'm able to keep down liquids without a problem.  it was just the couple of bites of applesauce that sent me over the edge.

If something WERE stuck -- like  a piece of the egg, would I be jeopardizing my health by waiting until morning to have it checked out?

This is a repost...but if it can help even one RNYer who is wondering "WHAT DID I DO WRONG...I can't keep down my food.  I followed the doctor's orders to a tee".  This may help.
What is a stricture?  This question comes up weekly, if not daily on OH.  Below is a copy and paste from Wikipedia.  If you are a few weeks out post op from RNY and have problems keeping well chewed food (even water) down, you might have a stricture.  Very common and very treatable (about 5% of RNY patients get them).  Also do not freak out if you have to go back a second or third time to get treated for one.  The Gastroenterologist will go just below the pouch and air up the "balloon" .  It is an outpatient procedure and you will be sedated.
  
As the anastomosis heals, it forms scar tissue, which naturally tends to shrink ("contract") over time, making the opening smaller. This is called a "stricture". Usually, the passage of food through an anastomosis will keep it stretched open, but if the inflammation and healing process outpaces the stretching process, scarring may make the opening so small that even liquids can no longer pass through it. The solution is a procedure called gastroendoscopy, and stretching of the connection by inflating a balloon inside it. Sometimes this manipulation may have to be performed more than once to achieve lasting correction.

Try some hot tea.  It has helped me in the past.  Can't hurt to try and pace around your apartment if possible. 

I will try something hot to drink.  And, I'll stay on my feet for a while.  Hopefully that will help.

Thanks for the suggestions!

 I second this advice!!  I did this earlier this week, and hot tea did the trick.

one more thing... when you irritate your pouch, the BEST thing to do is go 24 hours full liquids....don't try to eat, just do liquids and give your pouch a rest.

If you can't get down liquids, it's likely a stricture.

Good thoughts.  Thanks!!!

I hope you're feeling better! I still can't eat boiled eggs, at 10 months out. No matter how well
I think I've chewed it, it's just like a brick in my pouch.

Do check with your doctor in the morning. Take care.
