its not really a belch or burp



Recommended Posts

It does come up from your gut and flys out of your mouth when you open it when you would rather it didnt.

when ever i have this it always sounds like a drain letting that last little bit of Water down at the end. kinda wierd.

several months ago i was just sticking my hand out to a local cop to shake his hand and introduce myself, but when i opened my mouth this noise flew out like a burp on steroids.

i droped my hand and head, said "scuse me" while i reached for my wallet to show him my card with my band info on it and told him sometimes it just happens,

and told him about my band.

thankfully he kinda knew about it from some friends of his that have had the bypass.

now today i get on the phone to deal with the ceo of the company that installed my heat pump and furnance to take care of some problems with the system. the first thing he hear's when he said "hello" was this noise that would have barney from the simpsons immpressed.

so who else has the burp on steroids from out of nowhere ?

I do it. It's your diaphragm, sort of a 'wretching' type spasm. Often, you'll notice it is immediately following eating or drinking. It's one of my signs. One big hiccup sort of thing... yep, that's your sign... :bananajump:

Yup I used to get it all the time. I just stopped making excuses for it and said it was my twin trying to be born. LOL!!! That took care of any embarassment.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      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.
