TaraBell 0 Posted January 21, 2009 Hi there! I was banded last Friday and am still on liquids (3 Protein Shakes a day, broth and water). Every time i sip on hot Soup broth, I get hiccups. There is only one or two, but after every time I swallow. Just wondering if anyone else has experienced this? And if so, does it go away? I would hate to never be able to sip on anything hot.

mountainmomma 0 Posted January 21, 2009 Well ya got me! My hiccups did not start till I started on soft foods, I am starting my 4th week out today. I get them every time I eat or drink anything, the only thing that does not give them to me is my morning coffee, go figure! I had a weird rolling sensation for the first week and a half up my chest like a burp but then nothing would happen. DR said is wass because I had a hernia and he fixed it and things were settling back down. However durning surgery they put alot of pressure on your diaphragm and that can cause hiccups. Good luck! Hope it gets better Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
