I dont think I am eating to fast or whatever. Heres the issue I have been getting hiccups almost every day. I was just sitting here drinking water and have not eaten in hours because its about time for dinner soon and here they come again. I think I must get them AT LEAST 2 times a day and they last forever. I try all the old remedies to get rid of them everything from holding my breath to standing on my head. Anyone else have this issue or know why this horrid little monster won't leave me alone.

Hey Gummiebear...I get them too and then alot of times I get this "gurgle" or growl like sound from my esophagus. People close by can hear it. I know I'm eating right-tiny bites, chew, chew, chew and then some. I was banded in May and my last fill was Aug. 31. They told me I was tight and slow to empty and had a tiny bit of reflux with the last picture they took at the fill appt, but thought I would do fine. ( I drive 10 hours to see my Doc for my fills-Spivak) I asked them to get me tight so I wouldn't have to go so often...I'm still tight. Sometimes it late in the day before I can get anything down. Like tonight, I started trying to get a 3-4oz hamburger patty down about 6pm and just accomplished it. And that's all I've eat!!! The disappointing thing is I've been at a standstill for about 5 weeks now-no loss. Just thought I'd comment. Thanks

I get them much more now than I ever did pre-band. I don't know what causes them. And, when I am eating, I will get a tiny hiccup, and I know I better not take another bite. For some reason, that is my bodies warning sign that if I take one more bite, I am going to PB.

I no something on how to get rid of hiccups and it really works. A doctor at the hospital told me to do this, get a glass of water turn your head upside down and drink the water. I can't believe this really worked for me. Now being banded I hiccup whenever full but it never last. When I can't stop I do this and so far it works.

Good Luck!!
