How do you control uncontrollable Burping and Belching?

@rozy288 I am sorry to hear about your symptoms and being on the waitlist for Mayo. In a world where almost everything is instantaneous now a-days, it's difficult to wait when you are suffering. I do know that both Mayo Clinic and Cleveland are complex care centers and are usually the places people turn to when they have exhausted all other options and are desperately seeking answers. I think the reason for duplicate testing is to ensure other facilities didn't miss something. It's more of a testament to Mayo's thoroughness to find a solution, rather than an annoyance or burden for their patients.
Have you considered asking one of your physicians for a referral to attempt to expedite the process a little? Besides belching are there other disruptive symptoms taking place?

@amandaburnett My Gastro Dr. did send all records over in May. GUESS WHAT...I got a CALL TODAY from Mayo Clinic in Jax ....I have a televisit appt now (not until Sept 7th) !! I understand they have to re-do the tests. It's just the out of pocket cost is scary as the tests are very expensive even with Health Insurance. Also the cost of lodging when you need to stay there a few days isn't cheap at all. I'm looking into a home on VRBO that is dog friendly close to Clinic. I know so many people have gone there and done all the tests and still don't have answers to their issues. I only know from experience . I'm on 5th or 6th Gastro Dr. , I lived in NC and even went to DUKE. Still they couldn't help me get well. Thanks for input. Besides the 3000 deep wet belching, I have non stop churning going on all the time. MY gut gets so loud esp at night that it wakes me up. I'm up on 3 pillows and a small travel pillow too. Of course I'm tired during day from the horrible nights sleep. I even take something for sleep. I have diag. of GERD, Gastritis , small hiatal hernia, Esophagitis. I live on Ultra Pepto as I've tried a laundry list of RX and Holistic stuff. I eat so clean and small...but everything makes my gut terrible and intestines. I'm praying that this Dr. will be able to actually help heal me so I'm not suffering day and night . I want my life back....this is my last chance . Thanks Rosemary
