I see: U had hiatal hernia surgery and a lap band too. The only advise i can give you try to eat slowly and speak slowly too as you may swallow to much air. Try to lie down on the left side maybe it will help burping things up. Aslo, try to stay away for a while from tums (calcium carbonate). It could generate co2 in your stomach...
