Does everyone get Hiccups after eating? I’m a little past 3 weeks (May 7 surgery) and it seems to be happening a little less. Should I expect this forever?

OMG yessss! It's kind of between a burp and hiccup which is completely embarrassing. It can get annoying as it makes me feel like I have something stuck in my chest!

I didn't get hiccups after eating, but I did them them after drinking at first. That lasted maybe 4-5 days or so. I don't know for sure, but I wouldn't think that would last forever. Are you on the liquid phase still, or have you switched to pureed foods? I would think it's happening because you're getting air into your stomach somehow; that's what mine was, anyways.

I get them after every meal. The only way to get rid of them is to have a few sips of Water.

I’m on soft foods. It seems to come and go. Maybe I’m drinking too close meals? I’ll have to gauge it.

I am 7 weeks post op. I often get 1 hiccup when I've reached "full" at end of a meal. But last night I had full blown hiccups for about 30 min. Not sure exactly what caused it. I was also suffering from slime, so I may have eaten a little too much, or didn't chew well enough.

I've been having them off and on for a short period after drinking. I'm still on full-liquid phase. guess its air being taken in with my drink.

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
