Burping!

Does burping after you eat mean you band is to tight? or am I eating to fast? I had reflux problems/burping problems before hand, and my doctor thought it would get better after surgery but it is not getting better.

Wondering if anyone else has/had this problem.

You may want to check with your gastroenterologist rather than your band doctor or get them to consult with each other. My experience is that I have had some dandy what I call "band burps". Long and loud. Hiccoughs, too. The hiccoughs are usually a soft stop sign. The band burps are random. I was having some reflux issues prior to banding and in the 10+ years since, I could count on one hand anytime I have had heartburn. And those times were relieved with a few antacids. So it worked for me like your doc had hoped it would for you. Good luck!
