Stuck???

[carolyn5683 0]

I was banded in August 2007. It feels like something is stuck and I need to burp. But I can still eat and drink and burping doesn't help. It started last night. Not sure if this is normal. Went in for a fill today, doctor didn't seem to worried about it since i could still eat and drink. But it is very uncomfortable. Has this happened to anyone else???

That's kind of what stuck feels like - you need to burp but you can't, but there's also usually pressure and discomfort when you're stuck. And if you're truly stuck, you wouldn't be able to get liquids down, they would just add to the pain and eventually you'd backfill.

Does the feeling change at all maybe half hour after finishing a thin liquid like Water?

I had that for a while and could nto burp. The doc told me I would not be able to burp for a while. Well now I can burp like carzy.

Anyway, have you tried drinking something Hot like Tea or coffee? When I get that stuck feeling that usually helps.
