Gas and heartburn

bigsiqc · 07-20-2007, 09:39 AM

I am three and a half weeks post op and on the mushie stage of food. This morning and for most of the day I have had a lot of bubbling in my tummy and heart burn on and off all day. Is this normal?

Thanks

Simon

hiya, not got that far yet but i wonder if it would be ok to take some gaviscon that would settle it down and make you feel more comfortable

hi. ive had the tummy bubbles but havent had the heartburn. my doc told me to ignore tummy bubbles as it doesnt mean ur hungry (the worst part is when its really noisy)

Did you have heartburn before you were banded? If not then I would ease back on the quantity of mushies you're having and see what happens. I was told that the most likely cause is over filling my pouch or using food that was too thick for it to cope with.
