I was banded on March 23 2015 since yesterday having trouble with burping I can even hear the air gurgling type sounds seems like they are up in my throat not lower intestinal area. Also A Lot Of hicupps. I have had nothing but water jello and protein shakes which are actually the worst. Any idea s anyone. Thank you.

Congratulations on your surgery. I am wondering if you are having the wonderful gas issue I went through. I had to almost live on Gas X chewable for five days post-op. I almost prayed for the burps after I ate a tablet. May I ask what brand of protein drink are you consuming? They cab really vary greatly with the taste. I prefer chocolate, so I couldn't recommend any other flavor.

VA driver congrats on your surgery also!!! I use the eas advantage and I also have tried some organics. I live in the Houston Texas area so HEB is a great place they gave a great variety of shakes. No I really haven't experienced to much gas. The problem I was having was my band was to tight. The band comes with 3 mls in it from the manufacturer. So my doc released the fluid and all is good!!
