Ugh I hope this won't be a problem. I don't mind burping, but hate the discomfort that goes with it. I do it a lot....mostly after sipping. It's also a lot more of a hiccup/burp. Hate that! Even no the burping continues, will it always be so uncomfortable?

I figured out that it was drinking Water that was causing the frequent and painful burping. But I am able to drink iced tea, light cranberry juice, lemonade etc with no problems. I will keep trying to see if water gets easier but just wanted to say that you may want to try other fluids besides water if painful or frequent burping is impeding Fluid intake.

I had my surgery on 3/8 and started feeling the gas and pressure in my upper ab once I was allowed to start liquids. I realized it was because I was swallowing too much air. I had to make adjustments to the way I swallow. It's still hard and there are times that I forget but the gas reminds me immediately. Gas X sheets do help and I hope this stage ends soon.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
