Red Hatter Message: Belching Caregiver Red Hatter Recommend this Message Report Abuse Email a Friend Track this Message [Remove] Subject: Belching Date: 10/06/2004 My husband has esophageal cancer that has spread to his liver and a few other areas. His biggest problem is belching. He is eating very little, mainly drinking. He was a big man so he does have extra weight on him but he cannot get proper nutrition. He hasn't started chemo yet. It seems this is a rare problem. Has anyone had this awful eruptive belching and have found something that helps. Thank you. Sue Private Reply Quote Reply to This Message A H.

It doesn't work it's way thru the system like before. On the upside---he should have less flatus than the rest of us!!! Private Reply Quote Reply to This Message
