Every time I eat or drink I need to burp and can not? What is going on?

I am three and a half weeks post-op. Every time I take a sip of water, or eat anything, it feels like I have to burp and I can not. Then I sit there for an hour trying to burp so I can get my fluids down or my pureed food. Yesterday the problem was so bad I only ate two ounce of cottage cheese. On Thursday I tried to eat a scrambled egg and edded up throwing it up because it felt stuck in the back of my throat and then I burp. Too much gas. Is this serious? What should I do. I feel great other than this. Also, my intake of food or water is never more than an ouce every five minutes.
