very uncomfortable reverse burping Posted: 02-19-08 15:48pm
I have been desperately trying to find out
about this online, and the only thing I
found was a link to Urban Dictionary....
For as long as I can remember, I've often
had this weird reverse burping thing going
on. I can't seem to find out what causes
it - it's especially bad if I drink
carbonated beverages and things like that,
but it also appears randomly, whether I've
eaten anything or not. It feels as though
I need to burp, but I don't know how, and
instead it makes a weird internal sound
(kind of like one of those weird sound
tubes they make for kids) and I can feel
the air moving in my throat. It can be
pretty embarrassing, because sometimes
it's quite loud, but more importantly it's
terribly uncomfortable. It also makes me
feel like I should eat something to sort
of fill up space, but eating never really
makes it go away, either. I've tried
using things like Mylanta and Rolaids and
all that stuff, but it doesn't really
help. It's like it just has to go away on
its own, and often the only thing that
makes me feel better is to lie down, but
when I get back up it comes back. What
the hell is this problem?! Has anyone
heard of this? And what can I do about
it?! Please help me, because it's getting
to be too much for me

Could be GERD. Google this for more info
and definitely see your doctor.

Ok we've got a few threads going on this problem and need help Posted: 04-13-08 08:13am
I can't believe how many threads I am
seeing on this problem that I am also
suffering with. When is someone going to
be able to help us???? I'm posting on all
the threads hoping that someone can give
some new advice. I've tried relaxation
excercises before eating, no smoking, no
carbonation, no gum. Nothing works except
anti-anxiety meds which I can not longer
handle physically. However, this
gurgling/burping problem is also more than
I can handle. I can't eat until evening
anymore because I need to lie down after I
eat. My doc won't help me but someone
needs to help all of us sufferers
soon!!!!!
