girlgetsLB 34 Posted July 27, 2013 This is day 3 post op for me. Only had liquids so far and I sip very slow. I've noticed I'm burping a lot though. Is this normal? I have had a ton of gas pain but it is starting to get better. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sprinkle715 87 Posted July 27, 2013 Yes burping hiccuping and farting is normal... Try activated charcoal at Walgreens helps with gas better than gas x.. I'm 16 days post op and still have some gas Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
deleteme 176 Posted July 28, 2013 I would recommend that you walk, walk, walk, and walk some more for the gas! I would highly recommend against using activated charcoal as it is used to induce vomiting. I also found myself burping and still do. It is a "norm" for me.

this sucks 557 Posted July 28, 2013 Not to burst your bubble (), but I'm over three years out from surgery and I still burp all the time! All. The. Time. Welcome to the banded life... 1 SueBee01 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
