Hiccups Anyone??



Recommended Posts

I was just reading an article about hiccups... that they may be caused by the stomach bumping on the diaphragm....

I wondered if, since the pouch can trigger shoulder pain which is diaphrgm irritation, if anyone had noticed a problem with hiccups too?

I thought it was just me with hiccups. I called my doctor and she said I was still eating too fast. I slowed down today and I have been fine.

I get hiccups almost every time I eat. I'm kind of glad to hear someone else gets hiccups alot too. I thought it was just my own "oddity".

I get hiccups when I am full or if I have eaten too fast. It is a sign that I need to slow down or stop eating. Otherwise, no problems.

Yep me too. But generally my hiccups are just one "spasm" hiccup - one single loud one. People who don't know me and hear this think something is horribly wrong. :party:

On occasion I will get mini multiple ones.

I did have a heital hernia, and that may play a factor in it as well.

I too get hiccups regularly. I take it as a sign to stop! Sometimes it's just one really really loud one, and sometimes a series of them. But I truly think they are my signal to stop.

I too get the hiccups when I'm full and/or need to stop. I went through a period of lots of PB'ing in early April and realized that I wasn't listening to my body when something was going down sluggish or when I was full. Since then I try to really pay attention to how things feel as they go down, how much I'm chewing, or if I get the hiccups...a definite sign I'm done, and I've done much better now!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
