stupid stupid stupid

I am SO STUPID!

I had my follow-up with my surgeon on Thursday. He was impressed with how well I was doing, and told me that if I wanted to start mushy foods, to do so. So last night, I brought my blended tuna and mashed avocado to my mom's to eat while everyone else was eating dinner. She had a pasta dish with salmon in it, so I decided to try some. The salmon went down well....almost too well. So I tried some pasta...which went down, however, after a few slow bites, I started to hiccup, and my mouth started to water. I immediately jumped up, cleared my space and sort of walked around the house. I drank tons of water, and felt okay. But then last night, my stomach began aching. And it hasn't stopped. My stomach is still killing me tonight! I have had total liquids today-nothing mushy at all, and not a whole lot to eat anyways.

Could one impulsive meal have hurt myself? Or is this common? I am freaking out that I have damaged my band, or my stomach. How would I know if I did? Any ideas as to how to make this stomach ache go away......I've learned a valuable lesson....

Help!
