kkramer185 73 Posted February 22, 2013 With every swallow I get a pain then I feel like I need to burp. If I don't the next one is worse until I do burp. I was told burping is a sign of drinking too fast, but this is definitely not the case. Is this normal? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cartmansnj 105 Posted February 22, 2013 May be too much at one time. Try smaller sips. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

my3sons 51 Posted February 22, 2013 Please call your surgeon. It will put your mind to rest on the "normal" question. I do not believe it is normal...even with teh post op gas you should be able to swallow Water.< /p> Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mark! 449 Posted February 22, 2013 If you're "slurping" like it's hot, are you taking in a lot of air? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kkramer185 73 Posted February 22, 2013 I am not slurping, just the small amount is what I meant. I did Jello, that was a little better, not every swallow. I am literally only taking in a slight trickle down my throat when I do sip now. That seems a little better. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
