Belching.....

Does anyone else have a hard time belching/burping? Or is it just me? Karry 311/182/167 goal

Karry, I am not sure because this is so new but I have noticed that I can not get the same size burp as before the surgery. I am not sure if that will change or if this lil pouch only makes those lil burps.... Hoping you are doing well hun....~Hugs~ Debra P

It's weird for me...I can feel the burping sensation but I can't burp?? Guess I'll ask my doc next month. Thanks! Karry 311/182/167 goal

Actually....I have the opposite problem Every time I eat my stomach turns into some kind of strange sound machine...like the aquarium screen saver sound and I make noise and burp for between 30 minutes to an hour after I eat. Does anyone else have this problem...or have you found a good remedy? Karry, I have also been unable to burp when I needed to....NO FUN!! Ouch Who can figure out this post op body from one minute to the next Best of luck to you Clarissa 280/210/160

I know what you mean....My stomach makes all those funky noises too but no burp!!! I have it come out the other end very easily.... I also notice I get the hiccups after I eat? Whats up with that? Thanks!!! Karry 311/182/167 goal

Karry !! I DOOOOOOOo........It makes me mad sometimes too......remember the days when u knew if you could just burp you would feel sooooo much better......I never burp anymore.....ever.......I even try....lol I cant......Mannn I could belt some good ones off before......If I do a little tiny one now I amaze myself......BUTT.....I get hip cups ALLL the time now !! and most times...they are the kind that HURT !!!

When i had my gallbladder removed the doc told me to take mylanta to relieve the gas. it is extremely difficult to do with stitches/staples in ya. espesially when them burps wanna come out the other end!LOL. check with the doc and see if mylanta is ok for ya.

I was on a stomach pill for the first 6 months to help with staple healing and any excess acid, but even then had a hard time burping. I also had my GB removed during surgery. It's just weird, I guess. Thanks! Karry 311/182/167 goal

I'm so glad I'm not alone!! I just said in my last reply that I get the hiccups too!!!! At least I know that it's common at least for you and me anyway.... Thanks Brenny!!! Karry 311/182/167 goal
