What a bad habit can do to you!!! I was pinning a pair of blue jean's for my DD and I had the pin in my mouth. I took a breath ...and the pin went down my throat ...I had to go to the hospital ... doctor took it out ...I was very lucky ...he almost couldn't get it ... I was close to him operating on me... Buy the way I work there ... I still here about that story. That happened a few year's ago... I hope some one can learn from it.

I swallowed a pin once and they could not get to it. My doctor told me to just wait and see what happened. If I started having any sort of pain, I was to return and they would remove it. Otherwise, he said it would sit in my stomach and the lining of my stomach would grow over it and it would no longer be a problem. That was 20 years ago and I haven't had a problem with it at all. However, I no longer put pins in my mouth. |
