Gas x strips help You might be eating to fast if it is happening during eating. I'm still having trouble with that. Other times a burp can be a signal of being full.

Prayers coming your way.

I was on ambien also taking up to double my dose and it still was not working. If you truly have insomnia issues talk to your doctor about switching to Restoril.

As long as your on narcotics you shouldn't drive. I would plan on at least a week. Stock up on broths, yogurt, sugar free Popsicles, sugar free jello and puddings and eggs.
