I've been Slimed?

Gross Alert! Gross Alert! I was wondering.... I think I may have experienced sliming for the first time tonight. I was eating flounder and broccoli but have a few sweet potato fries... Anyway, I love sweet potatoes... fries was where I went wrong. I chewed and chewed and chewed but I felt likt something was stuck in my throat, or somewhere lower... I mean it didn't feel the same as getting things caught in my throat before PennyLane(my band) came into my life. So I coughed a couple of times and it came up in a ball like a cat with a hairball... I didn't feel better and it happened again within a few minutes. I am freaked out, I mean it didn't hurt coming up or taste horrible like vomit... I spit it into a napkin. I'm not sure why it happened or if it was the sliming I've read about in several of your blogs... Afterward, I felt a little better but didn't want to eat anymore. I felt like I had a fever too and felt a little sick to my stomach for a while. I think I lost alot of my protein from my meal since I always eat the protein first. Anyway, Was my experience tonight a sliming experience? Was I stuck? or a combination of the two? There was mucus involved so I thought... Mucus is slimey... but I am new to all of this stuff... HELP! I would like to know what might have caused this so I can try to prevent a repeat performance.

  1. It was 'stuck' then a 'PB' (productive burp). Slime isn't like a little mucus, it's like thick uncooked egg whites and it usually comes in volumes (sometimes before a PB and sometimes on its own). Not chewing well enough, eating too much, or being too tight can all cause it. Never fun! Feel better!

  2. Yep, that was a productive burp. TRUST ME, you will know when you are having a sliming episode. It happened to me the otherday from not chewing well enough and it was like heartburn and an overwhelming production of thick mucus that kept coming up. I had to stand around with a tupperware spit bowl (sitting down or lying down makes it worse). It was really bad and lasted about 20 minutes...
