Swallowed a little piece of glass!

Well, today is Friday the 13th and obviously REALLY not my day as I am already in a state worrying that I have DVT....

Anyway, such a dumb accident, but I broke a wine glass over the counter and didn't realise that there were shards of it at the bottom of a glass of juice I was drinking. I saw the pieces at the bottom of the glass when I got to the end of the drink and of course freaked out. I actually took glue and put the whole wine glass back together to figure out if I had swallowed any. The only glass missing is about half size of my pinky finger. So I may have swallowed a piece that size or perhaps smaller. I've already read that the body can deal with pieces of glass this size. Any advice to make me feel better so I don't fixate on this all night?? Thanks....:shrug:

Hiya hun

If it was going to cause a problem then it would have done so by now! Chances are that piece didn't land in the glass but outside on the counter.

Honestly don't worry over it!

Been there!!! :)
Don't get worked up over it...everything will be fine!

I was in a similar situation a while back & freaked out about for daaaaaays...seems silly now!

Nothing bad is going to happen so relax :)

Thanks so much for all your replies. You made me feel so much better. Nothing ever did happen and I am fine. The body is an amazing thing - I have to remind myself of that. :)

god wish i had come on to this page yesterday. i found a piece of glass in my lunch yesterday, know idea where it came from as i had cooked from scratch the day before and was reheating for lunch. so as you can imagine instant panic incase i had swallowed any little bits that i hadn't felt in my mouth when eating. ended up in a & e after talking to nhs direct, saw the nurse who said it shouldn't cause any problem if i had would normally pass through ok and if there was any causing a problem i would definately know. so anyway after a worried night i am still here and ok, but i might have been a bit more reassured if i had seen this post from you all yesterday.:)
