Hi guys!

I am over 6 weeks out from surgery. I have 5ccs in a 10cc band. Since surgery I have been burping like crazy!! Got stuck last week, and have been super sore since then, which is probably why I've noticed lately (every time I burp, I feel like the pressure hits that sore spot).

I have been downing Gas-X chewables like candy, and it doesn't seem to help the burping go away.

Any ideas on what else to take/do to help reduce and/or eliminate the burping?

I think you will find burping is a common problem amonst bandsters. I certainly burp lots now.

I started taking B6 and Aloe Vera, they are for dgestive health and motabilizm(sp). My gas in general calmed way down.

burping and gas are normal , but i dont know why ..... this is what the doctor told me ..
