Full feeling & hiccups/burps after eating
I'm just over 3 weeks out and on puréed. I'm trying to get a better understanding of what I'm feeling and I hope someone can help.
I had one (medium) poached egg and two soda crackers for breakfast this morning. I've had the similar before (even with a large egg) but didn't feel the same as I did this morning. About 90 minutes after eating I started feeling really gassy, burping and some hiccups. It was almost non stop for 15 minutes. I didn't have any water after eating. It eventually passed but even 4 hours later, I still "felt" full from breakfast. And there was some burps too. Haven't felt this before so far on puréed. I probably could throw up if I tried but not feeling nauseous. I don't feel anything else - no headache or sweating or rapid heartbeat. Is it possible something is stuck or just having trouble going down?
I realize the other thing might be that I'm eating too much.
Sometimes I burp a lot or have hiccups if I eat too fast or too much. I am 15 months post-op.
