sick and constant hiccups



Recommended Posts

I think I have the flu or something. All day I've been nauseous and running to the bathroom to use the toilet. (sorry!) On top of that I have this terrible pain in my stomach and I've gotten the hiccups 3 times. Each time lasting 30 minutes or more. Anyone know what we get hiccups from? Or whether it's related to illness or anything of the sort? Thanks for any information. =)

Hiccups on regular basis could mean you are filled too much. It is one of the signs my doctor has us look for when assessing if we need a fill or not. Did you get a fill recently? Do you think this might be the case for you?

When I first got banded, I had the hiccups for a solid week. It eventually went away. If I recall, my doctor told me that you can get hiccups if you eat too much too fast.

No I haven't had a fill recently. My last fill was March 25th or somewhere around there. I don't believe I even need a fill right now but I had never gotten hiccups before yesterday and they lasted sooo long. Another thing is that I was hardly eating yesterday because I was so sick. I had to force myself to eat and could only eat a little less than 1/2 a cup. So I don't THINK it was me eating too much too fast. =(

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
