Are hiccups bad? After surgery I had the gas pain up in my left shoulder ever since then I can't burp without hiccuping is this bad?

It's nothing to worry about. I still get the hiccups all the time. It's kind of annoying, but I think it's my diaphragm's way of letting me know it's irrated. I usually get hiccups the worst when I eat too much or drink something too fast.

Yes I get hickups sometimes. I really do not know why but I would guess Janiece's answer is the right one because I think mine happen after I eat or drink too fast or too much in one bite or drink. It is annoying but not too bad and it goes away pretty fast.

I wish I could hiccup or burp! At times I feel like I really need to but nothing comes up! I am only 4 days out- Banded on July 29, mayb that has something to do with it. I have no clue!

As usual, I'm no doctor, but, I can tell you from my experience, I had hiccups really bad up until yesterday, 8/1. Not anymore though, and I think alot of it has to do with doing the walking. Make sure you do that so you can get the gas out from the surgery. I think once you get that surgery gas out, you won't hiccup as much, or you may lose that feeling of needing to. Anyhow, continued best wishes Alan

I WISH i could burp or hiccup! Every time it seems that i am going to burp- nothing happens! lol I have my bf patting me on my back like i am a baby being burped! It actually helps to move whatever is n their around!

For me,,,, There are 3 stages of Hiccups !

1. If I Hiccup 1 time, it means STOP you had enough.

2. If I Hiccup twice, it means don't have anymore, because it's already full !

3. If I have the Hiccups, then I have the Hiccups.

This is so TRUE !

I get the hiccups after I've eaten too much also. I'm almost 3 years out and am still not a master of listening to my body. So sometimes it has to shout at me by giving me the hiccups. They're not usually painful just annoying as all get out. Now the after surgery gas was absolutely horrible in my left shoulder for close to 3 weeks. But it went away eventually, gas-x strips helped tremendously.

I have, what I call a hic-urp, hicup/burp. I take as an indication that things are moving, kinda like a swish.
