Suddenly able to burp again??
From what I’ve seen for most people with this condition, the ability to burp has been completely absent for all or most of their lives. My symptoms started at a later point in life. During my childhood, I could burp completely normally. In fact, I would always find it amusing to force myself to burp and gross people out. However, around the time I was 13, I haven’t been able to burp, and all the typical symptoms of discomfort followed.
I am 23 now, and in the past month or so, I’m able to burp again. I usually can’t do large burps, and I still get the uncomfortable gurgles and issues since my burps have been generally small and infrequent. But over time, I’ve been able to burp more and more throughout the day, and it’s giving me hope for the future.
I have not had botox to help my symptoms, so I have no idea why now I am able to burp again after a decade of suffering from RCPD. But I wanted to drop a post in here to see if anyone else has had a similar experience. I genuinely wish I knew what was helping my symptoms so I could share it with y’all. The only thing I could think of is I’ve been trying to reduce my stress, and I just started a new job that is way less stressful. But beyond that I haven’t had any major lifestyle changes.
