Anyone else hiccup when they are full?

[Sleeved in DFW :-) 61]

I’m 18 months out and still hiccup when I am full. I love that I have this physical cue to STOP. I’m hoping it never goes away. And a bit terrified that it will one day. Wondering if anyone else has this or had it and it went away?

I've seen other people in the forums talk about getting this cue too.

Yep I have this. I’m almost 10 months post sleeve.

I'm almost 4 months post-op and I get them when I'm full. I too, hope it stays.

No I just hiccup almost every time just before I vomit, so my fullness symbol would have to be something else. Truthfully I don't think I have had a true fullness signal in the 9 months, one where I stop eating and all is well with me! That's why I still am intimidated enough to never try things with much form to them. Tried to discuss this with Roy, my dietician. He like everyone else didn't listen. Kep telling me how wonderful I looked, how well HE THOUGHT I was doing. It's like drowning in a lake, calling for help and the only person with a life jacket is persisting in talking about how lovely the sunlight looks shining on the Water. Will it take me passing out or getting my blood chemistries out of whack before someone does listen?
I want to do things right, but fearful of swallowing and having it regurgitate again.

its not even like regular hiccups to me lol. it was like 3 warning shots. seems like its always 3. i dont seem to get them till a few minutes after im done.

i have learned to stop before the hiccups. i also put the fork down between bites and not in a hurry. you will get full and feel it, doesnt take much anymore

Yup! Almost 23 months out! Still happens, but not as much or as often. Thank God!!

Hiccups is my trigger as well. And they go away very quickly. It’s really odd but I don’t mind it.

Yes, but also when I eat too fast. I am working on finding a different clue to stop before I get to the hiccup stage.

Sometimes I get the hiccups, yes. Most often, if I get a pressure in my chest, that's my ultimate warning sign to stop! I must admit, the latter happens if I'm not paying attention and eat too fast >_>

I'm less than a month out, so I'm still learning these new cues😉

Be PERSISTENT on talking to your program support people. I'd even recommend calling your surgeon, if your program allows that. This is NOT normal, and you DESERVE to this addressed. I sometimes still get this cue, but at 23 months it's MUCH harder to feel full than it was at 1st. O don't often have that regurgitation issue anymore, but I DID have it consistently, and for a while. HATED. IT!! & it still occasionally happens, but now rarely. ALWAYS when I have too much or, more likely, eat too FAST! But if you're following all the guidelines and still regularly having this problem, call your surgeon so they can help! It could be a sign of something else happening, and you'll want to know that! Good luck!

Thank you I believe I will follow your advice and calling. It is terrible fearing swallowing.
