Burps

[Pink Ninja 67]

Hi All!

I am one week post op today! I feel good! Recovery has been pretty smooth. I have a weird question. Every time I eat or drink anything I burp. Probably a burp after every spoonful. It doesn't hurt, it's not uncomfortable..its just weird. Has anyone experienced the same?

I haven't had my surgery yet, but they basically pump gas into you're body.

Your burping to release some of that gas still!

Which surgery did you have? Having had bypass, I found the cause of this to be gulping as opposed to sipping. Even if you don't think you are doing it you could be. This is why they initially keep you from drinking through straws until you know the difference and it feels different.

If I get a burp stuck, it ruins my mean because it causes a severe pain in my chest. It doesn't happen often but for me it is when I eat too fast which sometimes happens.

Yes. A lot of times burping means you took too big a bite or you are getting full. I had sleeve surgery, and I burp a -lot- now.

I had bypass. And sometimes it happens with even the first sip so maybe they are too big. I'll try to sip "smaller" see if helps..Thanks guys!

I find I'm burping after Water. I mean I burp all throught the day whether I'm eating or drinking. But for some reason with cold Water right out the refrigerator its instantaneous.

I am in my 4th week post RNY ...

I burp a lot too .. often when my stomach is empty first thing in the morning. Once I have eaten it seems to settle down a bit. Also tea makes it really bad especially if I have it on an empty stomach. I guess it is our system adjusting to the new way of life.

The temperature of what you are drinking could cause this too. Try room temp Water if you can and see if it makes a difference.
