I get the hiccups after every meal and then usually one very long deep burp. The hiccups are much more annoying.

Actually, before the band I used to burp ALL the time it really got on my husbands nerves....Now, I rarely ever burp.

I'am glad to have found these remarks!! I hiccup more than burp, sometimes it feels good then other times it is very uncomfortable. This just started after my first fill last month.

When I get the hiccups lately theyre really strong...so strong they hurt...and they usually last for a few minutes...i'm hurting by the time I get done. I'd rather burp than that crap.

Oh hell yes! I'm a burping machine these days (3+ weeks post surgery). Relieving the pressure feels good, impresses my husband, and since I've been working from home a lot lately, doesn't embarrass me in front of my co-workers. :wink2: Certainly glad to know I'm not the only one, tho - I was getting concerned. :thumbdown:

I don't burp but I always do have the ridiculously loud hiccups. My poor cats sometimes jump a foot when I start up with those things.

I burp constantly! Or at least it feels like it! I burp after eating or drinking.

I used to burp quite a bit anyway, but they are very quiet burps (lady like ones someone said.) But I definitely notice it.

One reason I got the band instead of gastric bypass is because I know people with the bypass and it causes them to fart a lot more-- and horrible farting! I would much rather have burping than farting! :bolt:

Its funny now when I start hiccuping people ask me what I ate..

Initially post op I had the feeling of a burp coming up but it never really burped. Now I have burps and hiccups during and after every meal. And I agree I think it feels like it does it when the food passes through. Kinda like a corked bottle of wine.

I do burp more since being banded (7-30-2008). But it's a good burp! When I burp while eating and it usually means I had enough and I should stop eating! I am learning to listen to that burp and stop!

I have problems the minute I lie down for bed. I've been trying to stop all eating/drinking at least 2 hours before bedtime but that hasn't completely rid me of the long, constants belches...more than burping. Does anyone have this problem with Nightime burping? I know my band is rather tight, too. Please share your experiences.

Not eating 2 at least two hours before bed should do it. If I eat anything close to bed time, I burp it up and then I have o jump up and run to the bathroom. Same thing happens if I recline and eat. I have to completely sit up.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?
