Constant burping
Posted: Sun Dec 04, 2016 2:29 pm
Hi all,
on November 29th my mum received stent (due to bile duct blockage - she turned yellow).
She arrived home already the next day, but she has problem with constant burping. She avoids eating as she burps constantly and it is very uncomfortable for her. She takes omeprazol but t does not seem to help.
Anyone has similar experience and suggestion how to alleviate it? My mum only received stent in bile duct, did anyone receive it also in duodenum? My mum's tumour is in the head and from what I read it is not uncommon for stent to be inserted in dudenum in this case. I wonder what can be done, for her not to suffer. I will speak to her doctor again, but the general impression when talking to her is that "this is the nature of disease". Surely something can be done to alleviate symptoms?
