My surgeon told me that I can eat anything I like as long as I chew like a horse.

I eat nuts and sweetcorn, all allegedly no-nos, without any issues.

Hi there

If you've had a really large meal then you may get away with some nuts ... any kind

However, I also love nuts and if you get a blockage, you will probably never eat them again!! Extremely painful
