Thank you so much for your reply. I did go to the ER and they told that exactly, that they think it will go through. Now the woman, a doctor, in the ER said only liquids and to stay on ALERT, if I feel pain of discomfort to return. My problem is i haven't eaten a thing since this morning and with all the water I drank (6 liters now) i think I will feel discomfort. I wonder if I could eat something to avoid this, not eating in my system does equal discomfort and likely pain. So far I do feel something on my stomach but no pain. Thank you again!

So good to hear that you've seen a doctor. She said only liquids. That means all liquids not just water. You can have liquid soup, juice, shakes, smoothie or other liquids that can also give you nutrition. You must be hungry.
