Burping

[newlady1 67]

Has anyone experienced burping more than normal after surgery? Whether I'm eating something, drinking Water, etc consuming nothing Im burping. Now it's definately a relief when i burp but was just wondering why so often.

Very common. You used to have room in your stomach for the perfectly normal air you swallow while eating and drinking. Now you don't.

OK that makes sense thank you.

I only do if I eat or drink too quickly or if I eat too much.

I am 8 years out and still burp a lot more than I did before. It does get better. I find when I eat to much I burp more. Or when I’m on the onset of dumping I do. Thankfully I dont dump much anymore now that I know what to avoid.

I completely understand. I am today six weeks postop from Gastric Bypass and I burp ALL the time. No matter if I eat fast or slow.

I was told that if you eat or drink to quickly this will happen. I experience that as well. Have to remind my self to eat and drink slowly 🥴

Good point. Such a hard habit to break, matter of fact i don't even know I'm eating fast. It's really a conscious effort.

I'm 3yrs post surgery and burp excessively when I go too long without food. Once I start eating it settles down until it's time for me to eat again. Just started this a few months ago.

Your Digestive system seems to be saying "You -Hoo, Let's think about ME down here", sounds like it got your attention, didn't it?

Yesssss the burping is crazy but it's also a relief when it happens. I guess it's a better alternative than getting sick and throwing up. I know several people struggle with that.

I'm struggling with that also. Certain foods or when I push to much food, I can throw up.

I'm struggling with this as well. I'm worried it's going to last forever - going to talk to my surgeon about it next week. I'm 2 weeks post op. Anyone else get relief? I have a feeling it has something to do with the stricture in my esophagus being weak after surgery. I had a hiatal hernia repair so it could be from that.

I have to say that the burping is much better. I'm 4 months out and I don't burp nearly as much as I did when I originally posted this. So there is hope the relief will come.

I’m 4 months out and I still burp but not as much as I did at first.
