It may b because you are swallowing air when u drink. I learned to exhale almost completely the with lungs deflated then swallow. Try it. Hope it helps!

This happens to me too because I can't make myself sip and I take in too much air. It hurts! But the nurses told me not to panic when it happens. The doctor told me eventually my body will adjust itself... Whatever that means.

What r u drinking out of? I normally drink straight from the Water bottle , but I do better, less gas if I drink from a cup... Try that maybe??

I was the same way. The only way i could drink without pain. Even kinda now is using Water bottles with sport tops. A lil squeeze into my mouth n i dont get too big a gulp or too much air like i was when i was sipping from a cup.

      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.

      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!
