I had my surgery on the 29th of march. Every time I take a drink it hurts going down until I burp then the pressure goes away. Is this normal

Pretty common...are you taking really small sips?

I know it's normal for me, sometimes it's harder to drink than other times. My theory is that the sleeve is long and skinny -- the liquid goes down and a little bit of air can get trapped under the liquid and you burp to release it. The same thing can happen when I eat.

Good luck!

it will get easier in time. Please make sure you are taking sips and drink slow until you heal more.
