Omg!!! I m 3 days post OP and twice today I've have hiccups. Outside of surgical pain and gas pain, worst pain ever!!!! Good golly I wanted to scream.

I ha then all the freaking time when I had my lap band...not just cute little hiccups but like an alien was ripping it's way out of my body hiccups. Co-workers would think I was dying I don't miss those!!!!!

I've always had the loudest and most painful hiccups -- just once now since being banded and that was from eating too much too fast. Sound resembles what I think those flying dinosaurs may have made. It all settles down and then suddenly there's another one. Hope that's not my body's signal that I'm nearing full and should stop. I'd like something a little more subtle!

Omg you guys are making me laugh. These definitely don't feel good. Your right it is like alien ripped from body sensation. Icky

Lol

When I get the hiccups I am aware I am eating too fast and it is time to stop. I say it is when Audrey, my name for my band, is telling me she has had it and I had better stop and listen.

I get the randomly at anytime of day regardless of food or drink. I admit that as I heal it my get less painful but now the band slamming upward is.freaking painful and it makes my hyperaware that's it's there

I only get them when I eat to fast or i'm taking to large of a bite. I stop eating until they are gone and then I slow down with smaller bites until I am satisfied. Thankfully I am getting in the habit of eating right and it doesn't happen often.

I get them if I eat something spicy
