I have been burping more then ever since a few days after surgery what's up wit that?

Totally normal!

So funny to sit down and this is the first thread I see. I bent over about 10 minutes ago to pick up my daughters shoes...and I gave the biggest, loudest burp since surgery. OMG did it feel wonderful! So much pressure was released! LOL

OH OH! I was actually coming on to post a thread and ask if this is normal. I can say full sentences in a burp now (yeah I've done it) and have been so burpy since after the surgery. It's constant!

So wish I could burp....it would be nice. LOL. I feel the pressure to but it comes out a lil', almost like a painful burp and sneeze at the same time. Hate that feeling.

since my surgery on oct 13, i have been a burping fool. even after a month later, i am still burping. i know the gas is gone and i don't eat alot of gassy foods. but i still keep burping, not in full sentences, but i keep burping none the less. thought something was wrong with me! but thank god for this site, i am learning something everyday it seems.

I burp after every meal every drink and they are all loud and sometimes it hurts

I can't believe all of you are burping so much. I havn't been able to burp since surgery and in place of burping i do very very painful hicough things that shoot pain through my shoudlers. I WISH I WAS ONE OF YOU!!! The trapped wind pain is horrible and ongoing for me, its the cause of all pain and nausea... Funny how some of us burp so much and the rest can't burp at all. It really is a different procedure for each person :-)

Since everyone is posting that they're burping, I'd like to say that I wish I could!! I also would like to tell you the reason that you are burping so much is the gasses they used to inflate your stomach during surgery so the Dr. could see better. It tends to come out in gassy ways :biggrin:
