Re: Weird/Gross/Random question....

  • I think you would throw up again, and maybe again.
  • Sounds like it would be a vicious never-ending cycle

  • Stu, why are you wondering? I could ask my sister, she had hers wired shut when she was a teenager. I remember being sooooo jealous because she got to drink milkshakes three meals a day

  • I had a friend in high school who had her jaw wired shut, and the doctor told her that she absolutely COULD NOT get sick. She had to take every precaution not to pick up germs (constant hand washing, not eating off other people's plates, no sharing drinks, etc).

    He said that if she did throw up, that her body would force her mouth open and it would basically re-break her jaw and she would have to have it wired shut again. She was terrified, but luckily she never got sick!

    LOL!  I love it.

    As tempting as milkshakes for every meal sound I don't think I would ever want my jaw wired shut thanks to what that doctor said.  Hmm...I just made that sound like would consider voluntarily having it wired shut.  I don't think that came out right.  I do love milkshakes though, but I love cupcakes more and you need a working jaw for those.

  • That would be awful!!!  Vomiting scares me anyway because once I choked and completely freaked out because I couldn't breathe.  I would imagine you would aspirate and choke.  UGH!!!  It makes my chest hurt just to think about choking :(
