March 8, 201313 yr I was sleeved on Monday the 4th it seems like I burp after every time I swallow, water, pudding, protein drink it doesn't seem to matter. It doesn't hurt I feel good otherwise. Is this happening to anyone else?
March 8, 201313 yr I've been burping a lot more than usual, but I've noticed it's more when I forget myself and take too big a drink or bite of something.
March 8, 201313 yr Yep, I burped A LOT! The first week, I figured it was the residual gas coming out of me. But it also happens when I eat something my stomach doesn't get along with.
March 8, 201313 yr Joe, I was sleeved on Monday the 4th too. I burp quite a bit. (Plus the other direction!) I figure it's just the Anesthesia gas escaping. How are you feeling? Still sore?
March 8, 201313 yr I just made this same post in the WLS FB group. I'm 11 days out and I burp several times after I eat or drink thick liquids.
March 8, 201313 yr It's pretty common and normal. Kind of like the air in my stomach and the food are fighting for space.
March 8, 201313 yr In dr. Alvarez' book, he describes our sleeves like anew babies tummy. Know how you have to burp a baby after every oz or so so they don't get painful gas. So do we. Makes sense. I just posted something Monday when I was 3 days out called "sip BURRRRP" or something along those lines. Lol
March 8, 201313 yr Im 11 months post op and have the same problem burping. I dont think thats gonna get any better, at least for me i dont think it will.

Also does anyone else have a sore throat? its prob from the tube but it hurts the worst!! I am 4days out~~ I'm having the same problems with burping ha and stomach pains, which turns out to be gas. I'm 8 days out and just took a walk in the freezing nj air to try to get rid of some of this gas! Annoying but I guess comes with the territory
March 15, 201313 yr Hi. Just sleeved on Wednesday. I have burping marathons after tiniest sip of Water. I have been walking and tried gas x strips but they only make me burp even more. It is so much I can only sip about an ounce of water in a couple hours. Please tell me this will go away. I tried took some loratab to give me a rest. Funny thing is I feel great upon awakening but at that first sip I am miserable. Any ideas or just let me know that 2 days is too short and this will not plague me forever. At this rate I will get dehydrated but the burping/gas is so difficult I cannot sip. Thanks for letting me rant. I aAm usually not a complainer!
March 15, 201313 yr I was sleeved Tuesday the 12th. I'm burping too. I think it's normal. So far my burping hasn't been intrusive. I am still able to drink.
