Gastric Band and feeling stupid

I've had my gastric band about 12 years and I loved it. Took ages to get to the sweet spot but when I did it was perfect. And for 10 years al was great. Stayed at a slim 9'10.

Anyway once I started going through the menopause it got tighter and tighter, and I ended up getting it all taken the fluid defilled.

Put on 3 stone in 6 months 🙄

Anyway got second fill Friday and have restriction again! Wooo hooo

Now this is where I did something stupid, I popped an olive in my mouth and swallowed it! Ffs

Anyway spent the next 24 hours PBing to get it out. But still not out. I've managed tiny sips of water, but now I think I've prob got a swollen oesophagus.

I've ordered some Papaya enzyme which will
come tomorrow, and apparently breaks down food. I've never used it before.

It's now 72 hours and still not gone down or swollen oesophagus.

Anyone other Bandit had a blockage for this long. I remember years ago when I hadn't learned to chew properly I had something similar not I'm just getting a bit nervous.

Come calm me down pleeeeease.
