Hicupps and burps on day 4



Recommended Posts

I have been having a lot of digestive gasses. I knew to expect the gas pains from the surgery but I have been feeling a lot of rumbling and hiccups discomfort beneath my ribs. Is this all normal? I have been using some GasX strips they help for a short while.

I've been having the same. Constant hiccups-which scares me so bad cuz i am very paranoid of slippage. Burping too-Im curious to see answers...

My doctor told me that if I got hiccupps it was ok. It's caused from your diaphragm being irritated probably from your stomach being swollen from surgery. He also told me that when I finally get my fills and are full from eating that the swelling in my pouch could irritate it and I will start to hiccup again. hope you are doing well.

Burping is like being stabbed for me, I get this shooting pain down my spine my stomach feels like it's moving sideways and I see stars. Honestly, and this is sooo gross sorry if it's tmi, but Coming out the back end feels soooooooooooooooooo much better then burping, at least you feel relief and not like your torso is going to explode.

Lol I know what you mean. The gas in my stomach is definitely uncomfortable it feels like the monster in Alien stretching and wandering around. (not that I have personal experience just a good imagination)

It definitely gets better as the swelling goes down and your band loosens up. At first I felt a bubble or burp literally after every sip of Water and it wasnt pleasant. Now I only get that as a reminder that I have eaten or drank too fast!

      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'. ???

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
