I was wondering had anyone experienced the hiccups after eating a meal? I received my second fill about 2 weeks ago and that's when it started.... should I be concerned? They hurt to the point where I don't want to eat :-(

I have gad them and my doc says normal for either eating too fast or a sign I am full. Not a worrisome problem, just a pain. : )

Same here... usually I hiccup just once and it is my signal that I am full. Annoying, but a good reminder.

that was one of the first signs for me that I had enough to eat.. a little hiccup or burp.. says You're done.. quite eating.. it's actually pretty neat... mine isn't painful though...

Agreed. When I hiccup..... I stop eating. Its my backup just incase I am eating for the wrong reasons.

Hiccups is my signal to stop eating. If I try to eat pass that, I feel a little pain. Now, after the 1st hiccup, I stop eating. Sometimes that is hard to do became the food taste so good. But, I got to listen to my band.

I had a fill 4 days ago and have just started doing that after eating in over 3 years. I'm starting over and that may be a good sign for me....Thanks for posting that!

The reality of a Hiccup, and sneezing is YES you've probably eaten enough for your Band BUT... what is occurring is your band or stomach is contacting the Diaphragm and that is what is causing it, most feels it's an inconvenience or use it as a "tell" for when they should stop. HOWEVER the diaphragm doesn't feel pain it refers pain, usually to the Left shoulder, caused from the Phrenic nerve. Simplified the Phrenic nerve controls breathing So if you develop breathing issues because of prolonged hiccups or sneezing TELL YOUR DOCTOR GET IT CHECKED
