i had to swallow a HUGE swollen dime bag once when i got pulled over. i thought i was going to suffocate to death. it got stuck in the middle of my chest and i had to down an entire 20oz. bottle of sprite to get it down. i was praying that i didn't puke it up on the cop while he was talking to me. i got away...but never seen any signs of the bag actually 'passing through'...
