I've been told hiccuping can be a sign of a leak. Am I the only one that hiccups pretty often? When I was banded hiccuping was a sign of being full. I went in looking for a leak because of hiccups and found no hiccups. Why are hiccups bad? Anyone get them with no leak problems?

I'm 2 weeks post op and have hiccuped twice and I think that's because I ate too much or too fast. I'm not sure if that's a sign of a leak...I just saw my surgeon today and he said intest shoulder pain is a sign of a leak. I think you should talk to your Dr. just in case.

I get them everytime I eat. It's my full signal. Never heard of it as I sign for a leak. I'm almost 1 year out and I'm a-ok ; )

I get them when I'm full. Haven't heard anything about them being tied to a leak though.

I get them terrible when I've eaten too much. Not just hiccups but burps really bad! My family thinks its funny! I kind of hurts though! I try to learn from it and not eat so much, but I've always gulped my food down really fast. I am having trouble eating slow even now!

Hiccups are a sign of being full for me as well. I try to breathe in as I hiccup so that it doesn't hurt as bad. I only hiccup once or twice and they usually go away...

I get them if I take too big of a drink, but never when I eat.

Those are my full signal too. Burping as well. I've never been so gassy. I think I eat too fast as well. My sleeve makes the most funny and hideous noises. Nothing hurts. It's just weird.

Full sign here too!!

Now that you mention it, since the sleeve I NEVER get hiccups anymore!

ok, this is so weird. I know I'm done eating when I can feel my heartbeat in my NOSE! Its so weird.

Have been getting them after I eat like half hour later..goes on for like ten min or more..happens when I eat meat..cottage cheese..no issue...have had them when I felt like I ate a little too much and when eating less..so frustrating.
