Probably the endoscopy dislodged it even if they couldn't find it. I hope you feel better and that everything comes out okay.

Amen.


At my church growing up, they used to have the blessing of the throats on St Blaise day.

I no longer practice but at my childhood church, we also had blessing of the throats. I was talking with another Catholic friend but she didn't have it growing up. She didn't even know what I was talking about.

OP - glad you are better. Did you go through with the surgery? Or they didn't actually operate since they couldn't find it on x-ray?

Let’s hope they go for the bone via the mouth, rather than the other alternative.

I'm sorry that happened to you, OP! I hope you pass it without hindrance.

When you feel better, keep an eye out for your bill. I hope they don't tack on the surgery you didn't have.

I’m so sorry, OP. When you’re feeling better, go buy a lottery ticket. You are bound for some GOOD luck!

Wow, now you have quite the story.

I used to tell about when a bone got stuck through my tongue vertically , so I could not talk to tell anyone what was wrong.

But I was able to just pull that out, so you win.

In all seriousness, I am glad you are okay. So sorry that you had to go through this!

I am home from the surgery. It was a 9 mm fish bone they could see on the CT scan but could NOT find when they went in!! After looking for 1.3 hours and giving me a neck x ray, they decided I must have swallowed it after all while waiting for the surgery overnight.

I am home now and groggy from anesthesia and have a sore throat from the endoscopy type procedure.


Hope it all comes out alright!
