enigmachik 403 Posted July 11, 2012 Granted, I'm only four days post-op, but I'm still burping and farting up a storm (lol) and I'd be REALLY happy if that would go away. How long does it take? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MinaT 669 Posted July 11, 2012 Oh what I would do for a nice fart. It goes away. Take your Gas-X and make sure you are taking something for acid reflux. I would also kill for a liquid in and liquid out. I miss that too. I'm at 5 weeks at it does go away. It gets replaced by other things. During the 3rd week the liquid in and liquid out stopped on me and farting seems to have to be forced. For the burping though, are you drinking out of a Water bottle or are you using a med cup (or something small like a shot glass?) We were given med cups (one ounce cups). I take in a lot less gas and feel less bloated and feel so much better when I drink out of that than a water bottle or regular size glass. Being 5 weeks out, I need to get off my little one ounce shot glasses, but there is a HUGE difference sipping out of them and sipping out of a Water bottle. Best of luck to you.
