My husband is a thin man. Last night he told me to come look at his stomach. He had a gut! He then admitted to me that over the weekend he probably had 30-40 pieces of gum, and swallowed all of it. I know swallowing gum is really not that terrible and it's an urban myth that it stays in your stomach for years. But in that amount I am worried that it is a problem. Could this cause a blockage in his system? Should I be worried? He is currently a student and does not have insurance, so he won't go to a doctor unless needed. Any ideas of what could happen, or what to do?

oh um this dosent sound good i know he dosent want to go to the doctor but this could get serious. THe only thing to do is to go to the doctor.
hope i helped
