I know I told a few of you that I was going to take a break but I didnt know where else to go to get this off my mind. So here I am.

Today I had to ride to Atlanta with 4 other guys including my boss' boss who is very cool btw. Anyway on the way back from there we stop at Outback Steakhouse for dinner and I ordered the Outback special 12 oz. I take my 2nd bite of it and chase it down with some of the beer my boss got me and then I couldnt get it to go down. I stand up and Jared moves out of my way and I run to the bathroom where I cant breathe finally I start puking but the hunk of meat wont come out and its still stuck in my throat as I type this e-mail.

I tried drinking water and it wont go down and only comes back up and I cant get spit to go down either. It hurts really bad in the middle of my chest but I can feel it going down some little by little.

Does anyone know any other ways or things I can try to get this to go down? I would be very greatful right now for any help.

Does 2+2 need an Emergency Medical Advice Forum? I'll be sure to raise this question at the next mod cabal.

Can you go to an emergency room? So this is stuck in your esophagus and not your trachea, I assume.

I have no idea I just feel it in my chest. What I piked up was the stuff I was drinking and little strings of the meat.

If you can swallow liquids, then maybe drink something acidic so it will help to speed up dissolving the chunk of meat. Pineapple juice has the right kinds of enzymes for that. You could also try other fruit juices such as cranberry, orange or even tomato juice. Cola soft drink would, too.
