Burping

bethmer · August 9, 2011

I was sleeved recently too on August 4th and have the same issue with belching. Also trying a recipe the nutritionist gave me a combined black Beans, salsa and chicken broth and I pureed this into a liquid black bean Soup which my papers state I can have only the effect during and after were terrible gas pains and tons of burping. I have tried the Protein Drink only that is making me nauseus so I am at odds with what I can have right now?

Give it time, you are swollen and healing, You don't want them putting anything down there to irratate things further. Each day will get better. Are you using the little medicine cups they gave you in the hospital? We can not gauge how much liquid we put in our mouths with out them. I was told one medicine cup every 30 minutes and all would be fine.

Thank you, You have all given really good advice!

I'm just like you, Kelly. I am 4 months out and when I eat or drink, I am likely to burp and gurgle. There is nothing I can do about it. The people I work with know about my surgery and this is just part of it. Most of the time they just look at me and grin. If I am out some place and this happens, I just look around like it is someone else. (Have you heard the saying "Whoever smelt it, dealt it") I don't care how much I burp and gurgle. I wouldn't trade my sleeve for anything.
