Hick up burps anyone else got them??

I am 1 week and 1 day post op, I am having these weird burp hickups. They feel like everything in me is about to come up but then it just comes out as something like a hickup and a weird burp kinda thing. I get them about 1 every 5 mins. It is pretty irritating!! I want to make sure it's nothing to worry about, I also had a hiatal hernia when they went in and they fix it. So just making sure its nothing to do with that.

I'm 6 days post op and I get the same thing. ( very annoying) I did not have a hernia repaired so I'm assuming it's a Normal lapband thing. I've heard many on here say that they have difficultly burping and going to bathroom (getting gas out) so best advice is to walk , walk, walk... Easier said then done when in pain ... Lol-

Good luck to you

I am seeing the same thing, I am 5 days now and starting to get ALL the sensation back inside... wow do we make some serious noises internally...

anyways that burp and the hickup is the pouch emptying from what i can ascertain... when you drink or eat it is still settling in the pouch and draining into the stomach, when that happens you have the release of air causing the burp, gurgle or hickup... at first i really thought i could actually feel the swirling effect inside me... had the mental picture of the toilet bowl swirl as my pouch emptied into my stomach... a bit dramatic but its amazing what your mind puts together when you really dont know whats happening...
