Weird question/situation



Recommended Posts

Since I've transitioned to eating normal food, I've had a couple of instances where I will burp little pieces of food up hours, like 6-8 hours, after I've eaten.

For examples:

I can eat the inside of a small chicken eggroll in the afternoon around 1pm, then eat dinner around 7, and somewhere around 9pm, I'll burp up a bit of the cabbage from the eggroll. It's weird, and to be honest pretty gross.

I've had some Wendy's chili which has celery and onions, and those came back up hours later as well.

I'll eat some tuna with pickle bits, chopped up tiny, and then 3-4 hours later a piece of the pickle will come completely undigested.

It's happened with various Beans. I quit eating corn after one attempt because that was disgusting.

Now, what's even more strange. I can eat Mexican food especially chicken fajitas with the sauteed onions, and have zero ill effects. I can eat guacamole without any of the chunks of tomatoes and onions (I hate tomatoes and raw onions).

I don't know if it's not chewing well enough, or slow motility in my sleeve. I drink about 30 - 45 minutes after eating, and I drink right up to the time my first bite hits my mouth. I do chew, chew, chew, but this happens sometimes with various foods.

Any ideas, suggestions or advice?

I can't figure that one out, Tiff. Cabbage from lunch coming up after supper....did you have some cabbage for supper too? Seems like lunch should be gone after 2 hours. ???

It is super weird. It's like some foods hide out in my tummy, and then come up later.

For dinner after the eggroll, I actually had some mac-n-cheese. None of it came up.

I have had that too, Tiffy. I feel fine; it's not like when I get the slimes. And just little chunks, nothing major. Beans are no good for me, nor celery. Onions are iffy. Thicker breads? No way, period. I am sure it is just of stomachs now have little hidden pockets and some of the more course materials get caught, then work their way back up. I have an appointment on Tuesday and was going to ask about the burping up of stuff anyway. Will pass on what I find out.

Thanks Bob for asking. My surgeon just deployed to the sandbox for 6 months, and I don't have a follow-up until December.

It's the weirdest thing I've ever had happen. I don't get a sensation that anything is going to come up nor does it feel like when I don't chew well enough followed by a bit of sliminess. It's just so weird to explain. It's like I'll take a drink of Water, then BAM a tiny burp with a hitchhiker pickle piece.

I'll keep up with this thread to see what your doc says could be the cause.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
