Weird burping problem induced by alcohol vomiting
 

Ok, so here's the story. Last Friday night I had a huge amount to drink. I woke up in the morning and threw up. Feeling much better, I went back to sleep. When I awoke later that day I noticed I had this constant feeling that I needed to burp... like the feeling of air pressure in your solarplex area. I would almost burp... but nothing would happen. Now it is three days later, and while I have started to burp a little, I still have this weird feeling. It's not painful, but really annoying.

I hardly ever drink, the last time I remember vomiting was probably 8 years ago. Could this weird feeling possibly be from all the odd muscles I used to throw up? If anybody has experienced this I would appreciate your imput.

Going way out on a limb here, but mild heartburn perhaps?

Last weekend I drank Gin and diet 7up for the first time in a LONG time and wow, I got hit HARD with heartburn. I had to take some really strong antacids. Basically it felt like exactly what you are saying but MUCH more severe to the point of being extremely painful.

Pepto Bismol...

I use it when this happens to me... usually Apple Juice or Root Beer are the cause.

not that you ought to remember right now, but was your vomit especially acidic? if it was you could have burned some of the lining a little, and it's probably just healing now.

I can't remember if the vomit was acidic... just remember seeing a big bowl of... well you know.

Anyway... I am feeling better now. When I get the urge to burp I actually burp! It's very relieving. If this happens again I'll try the peptol bismol thong. Thanks everyone.

You know, if pouring the pink stuff on your crotch makes you feel better, more power to you!

Me? I just drink it. Whatever works for you though. :lol:
