Sneezing

[dfwtxmissy 108]

So is it just me? I have discovered a little vasovagal response that when I eat a little more than I should, I wanna sneeze...LOL...

Don't laugh..ok..go ahead and laugh but I guess it's better than puking at the table. I am 9 months out and just started having this issue. Not complaining. I just find it interesting...

It is normal for some people, my x-boyfriend had that issue and he never even had WLS, sometimes the after dinner sneezing was just uncontrollable, but hilarious. At the time I had googled it and this was an article that I thought was very helpful - http://www.everydayhealth.com/internal-medicine-specialist/sneezing-after-dinner.aspx

Oh, honey!,, it's been the NORM for me since the beginning ! Once a certain amount of food "hits" a certain spot I begin to sneeze. Usually at least 8-9 TIMES! Yep, always! Drives my husband nuts. Like I can stop it! Lol. And the people keep saying, "Bless you"', "goodness". "Wow". Bahaha

Thanks Blondie..makes sense. Georgia, I laugh at myself. This just started...and I find it funny. The hubs will just stare at me and laugh...I hate to sneeze but hey...could be worse...LOL

Wow. This is so normal on the lapband board (which I used to frequent before my sleeve revision 11 mths ago) but had no idea it happened so much to sleevers also.

When I was sleeved, if I took 1 bite too much, I would hiccup - just once - to let me know I've had enuf. Now, nuthin. Cept a tummy ache if I take 1 bite too much.

I get a double hiccup.

I'm a sneezer! My husband thinks it's hilarious and try's to make me sneeze every time. This is what got me in this mess! First time I sneezed with real food, I wasn't expecting it and had a mouth full of food! It shot out like a cannon! I couldn't stop laughing, sneezing, and trying not to pee all at the same time! I'm a hot mess...but it is still funny! Good times!

OMG...exactly why I hate to sneeze...2 kids and am afraid I will pee ....LOL...Hot mess or not...we got this..LOL...

Ah, yes, the sneezing, the hiccuping, the burping! I burped a lot when I started on solid food. Sometimes I still do the burping thing, but my new symptom is a really loud and squeaky hiccup. It's really embarrassing when I do it at work. It can be even 20 minutes after I've eaten. All is well, then suddenly... "HIC!" - the hiccuping didn't start until at least month 5 post op. So embarrassing.
