Rude Question, sorry

Hi,

I am several days out from my surgery. April 6 is when I had it. I am having some discomfort when I hiccough or burp. I am trying to drink without adding air to my stomach. However I feel this is a totally losing battle as I have sleep apnea and I'm sure I get full of air every single night. My partner had the same surgery last year but has no real trouble either hiccoughing or burping? I'm not terribly concerned yet but my partner is a tad concerned.

Am I the only one with this issue post -operative? I would massage my stomach to move the air around but even touching it is really painful still.

Just looking for some feedback or comforting words of wisdom if anyone has any.

Thanks.

I also have sleep apnea and had that problem post-op. I tried the dissolving Gas-X and it worked great. Good Luck!

I too had the same issue, it seems like for a few weeks. It let up after a while.

I still hiccup pretty hard when I get a little too full.

Thats not a rude question at all :) From what I have read on here from all the post-ops on here, burping is very normal. If you feel like its hurting more than normal or something like that then you should definitly call your doc office. Good Luck! :)

I'm having a similar problem, my doctor just told me to go and purchase gas-x. I hope that helps.

Me and my sister where sleeved on April 6 as well and we both find that walking realy helps with the gas right after surgery my left should and chest realy hurt from all the air they but in but as soon as I started walking it started feeling better. The more you walk the more air you can get rid of also have you lost alot of weight before your surgery your pressure on your CPAP may be a little too high now. I am a resgistered sleep tech and a registered respiratory therapist I have worked with sleep apnea pts for over 5 yrs if you have any questions about the CPAP I may be able to help.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks
