How do you control uncontrollable Burping and Belching?

Posted by jammins @jammins, Dec 8, 2018

Anyone experiencing uncontrollable burping and/or belching? This seem to be a rear condition that no GI exam air specialist has been able to find a cause and subsequently a solution. Any help from someone with the experience would be greatly appreciated.

Interested in more discussions like this? Go to the Digestive Health Support Group.

Any swallowing issues associated with this? I ask because a rare swallowing disorder called achalasia can create uncontrollable burbing. I have achalasia and it was one of my first symptoms. Achalasia is also a disease that can develop very slowly

Oh brother , I could honestly write a book on my 10 years of thousands of deep wet ( gastric lining tasting ) belches that come out of me day and night . The non stop 🛑 churning gut and intestines. The way I can’t eat anything ( I eat so very clean ) w/o hours of suffering .
When I tell you , I’ve had 6 Gastro Dr’s , over 20 tests , even at Mayo .. 6 diagnoses… including Gastritis, esophagitis , Class B GERD , Bile Reflux, IBS , small hiatal hernia, small benign polyps on my stomach lining.
And non stop gastric deep belching . I’m sure I’ve forgotten some .
No RX , no herbal remedies, no holistic approaches, ( I’ve been good allergy tested 2 x , no food allergies), elimination diets , everything they make for gastrointestinal health on Amazon . Nothing helps .
I don’t drink any milk 🥛 for years and low dairy , low low sugar , we cook healthy meals at home .
I rarely can go eat a meal at a restaurant. No fast food , no fried food .
It’s ruined my life ….
10 years of it .
I never get one day off from symptoms .
I walk 1.5 -2 miles a day .
I’m usually very fatigued in day because lack of sleep from it.
I sleep propped up on 3 pillows .
Just had extensive bloodwork done from the new functional medical doctor , urine and stool . Also Abdominal ultrasound again yest .
No one so far can figure this medical mystery out .
Really changes your whole life .
I’m praying 🙏 they can actually find what’s wrong besides what they know , and help me get some relief and healing.
I hope you find the same .

Hi, I'm sorry to hear that what you've been through, have you considered nissen fundoplication surgery? Google it, it has a lot of good reviews and change people's life. I just had it 3 weeks ago and still burping a lot but hoping symptoms will improve within the months. Doctor says it's still normal and it's not acid reflux

I have gas every morning now, and constant belching the rest of the day. Gastro says it's from my Esophageal Junction Outflow Obstruction (EGJOO) combined with my severe GERD.

I’ll have to google that .
Do you take anything besides Pepto like me ?
Even that after 10 years really doesn’t help .
I’ve tried all meds / and holistic treatments. This honestly ruins my life as I’m sure it does all of us writing in here .
My belches ate so huge and wet tastes like gut lining , over and over and over . My gut and intestines never relax . I’m so tired of it ;(

No if you get that surgery ( which I did talk to a GI specialist surgeon about ) the problem is you can’t belch … nor throw up 🤢. I rarely throw up but I have such wet deep burps .

I have to get all this gas out of me 1000’s x a day . If it was trapped , no way I could survive.

Al I can tell you is that I know the feeling 🥺, but a couple of my friends had that surgery for years already and are totally symptom free, at first for about a year or so you would feel like bloated because now gas would go to your stomach but they give you gas x to help you with that, the reason I had the surgery is because i have barrets esophagus which is pre-cancer and it could progress to cancer if I don't stop the acid that made me burp, and my sister had that surgery 20 years ago and she's totally fine thank God! So I'm hoping my symptoms get better within a couple of moths or so since my surgen has 100% success rates 🙏🏻🙏🏻, and of course this surgery HAS to be performed by a doctor with a lot of experience!
