So much product! I can’t.

Hi! Any update on how it’s going for you now?

I burped all my life. The inability to burp started a week ago when I almost choked on a food I was eating, then I started having problems with belching. I didn't realize it on time, and I was eating anything I saw. Now I'm bloating, and there are gases in my stomach and esophagus with no way to expel them. This is the worst feeling ever 😭

Finally someone had to come out and say it. I started investigating first skincare during the pandemic then haircare too to see what science says. Now I only use science based skincare and regular haircare. I cannot believe I believed this bull...for decades.

I have this! But what do you do if you know you have this.. who do I go see that will actually officially diagnose me and not write me off?

is there any soluton for burb without botox?

Me too! I saw Dr. Holmes in Raleigh, NC, but he has moved to Mobile, AL. I had my surgery in 2021 and I happily burp normally now. There is a subredit (noburpersofredit) with a lot of information there including a list of providers.

I think the fear of vomiting 🤮emetiphobia has a lot to do with this condition - I also had a fear of vomiting and would have anxiety just to think of it. The only time I can burp is when I puke - I do very rarely burp.

Im from NyC and been dealin with this since I was a teen.. Never thought it was a disorder. I eat try to eat healthy so dont get much gas but its still very frustrating bc gas is gonna accumulate no matter what. Sometimes I sight a lot to get the air out. Im seeing an ENT next week hopefully he does Botox for that too. Do you still get it?

THANK YOU!

Nice👍👍👍

The buff I used and woke up with it off, that’s how much movement I do when I sleep..

I think the silicone free has been ruining my hair. Im still sulfate free, but I think I'm going to slowly introduce more silicones.

This was me. I thought I was crazy for contributing it to my fear of vomiting as a child so I’m glad you have the same thinking! Years ago I went down the Reddit rabbit hole and heard about the doctor in Chicago. My plan was to go and see him however about a year ago I was going through months of intense physical training which led me to sit at home in the afternoon and drink lots of water. The discomfort was horrible and one afternoon I let out a hiccup at the same time I was feeling discomfort which led me to a small burp. Over the next few months I would try to time up hiccups and now one year later my muscle memory allows me to burp whenever I need. Such a huge relief and has really led me to live my life much more free.

Before this treatment, were you suffering from other things also like short breath , weakness in your body , coldness , your body is not growing up or changing, dizziness , not tasting food or water because of the acid maybe ?

britt--well done..are you a professional presenter? your communication methods are so clear, and i am learning so much from you. too bad for me that most of your posts are 3-4 years old. are you still making videos? Once again, I haven't seen videos which are so well organized, relatable, and polished.

Amen! I had to find out the hard way that CGM and "Clean" were not right for me. Within a 1.5 mon I began looking my hair. I'm not saying CGM will make you lose your hair but I did lose mine. More than half of my very thick hair. Then I tried a CLEAN product to help hair growth & thickening only to keep losing my hair. It was in my despair that I stoppped Vegamour and tried Nicolás shampoo w/ Ketaconozole, recommended by Dr. Dray. Along with the hydrating line of Moroccanoil shampoo, conditioner, deep conditioner. The oil and leave in spray that I instantly saw less hair fall in the shower. I also added Mielle's rosemary oil. It's been 2.5 months and I'm thrilled with the results. Less hair shedding. I no longer run my hands through my hair only for gobs of hair to come out as if I had been on Three Mile Island. I can see new hair spouting about 1/2 inch long even my stylist commented on the new growth. Please understand I'm not demonizing the CGM and Clean products but if you are using them and having unexplained hair loss you just might want to try a line that offers you the benefits that your hair needs. Btw I did see a doctor all levels were fine, no thyroid issues or anything else. I so wish I would have found this video when it came out. At least now I don't feel like a lone wolf anymore. Thanks again.

Thank you I have a 14 y/o who can not burp and I'm happy we came across your channel because we didn't knoe this was an actual thing or a concern. Thank you again

I wish other countries start get to know more this condition and give treatment, its a big struggle when you live in another country

Is the water in the bowl supposed to be ive cold, warm hot?? Dosent matter?

Not sure what to say other than 'Thank you!' You might have just changed my life - not to mention my marriage. This is so 100% me. Not sure why it took me 20 years to Google this, but I am so glad I found you! I guess I'll schedule an ENT appointment first thing tomorrow morning.

SOOOO thank for this information!!!

I've had this issue all my life and I never connected the dots. EVERY symptom you had I had as well. I googled "can't burp" in 2019 and didn't find anything relevant to R-CPD, but IBS. Thankfully I googled it again 2 years ago and this time I came across to r/noburp, and let me tell you I was SO shocked to find a community of +10K people having the exact same condition as me. Since then I did my due diligence because I read that doctors don't take this serious, so I came prepared. So a year ago I went to my GP, doc told me in his 40 years of practicing he never heard of this condition. Took a bit convincing but like I said I came prepared, then eventually got forwarded to the laryngologist of my choice and he diagnosed me. I'm getting botox next month and really looking forward to burp for the first time in 24 years on this earth!

I had a hair analysis and consultation after completing a questionnaire and submitting hair strands from different parts of my head. The analysis was worth the money, I learned a few things about my hair I didn’t already know. It’s very healthy, no split ends despite color, highights and low lights every 3 months, yay! But the consult was a disappointment. I knew more products and equipment than the “expert” and knew at least as much as she did about technique. Interesting experience and one I don’t regret having.

you're awesome. very similar story to me. I would get a lot of chronic gastritis from this too. So glad to be going to Dr. Bastian's clinic next month. Thanks for making this video, very clear, informative and inspiring!

To get more slip add more water

THANK YOU!

i had my treatment 1 day before..is there any key point or tips for burping?? how long should i wait for the burp to come??

Thank you so much for posting this. My 16 year old daughter has had a massive fear of vomit since she was a toddler and is now having all the R-CPD symptoms. I don’t think she’s thrown up since she was 4! I am going to try to get her in with Dr. O’Rourke in Charleston, SC asap. Thank you!!!

Froggies!

This sounds awful 😭. I’m glad you found an answer . I suffer from lower excessive gas and cannot find an answer or a treatment for my issue . 🥲

Welcome back i have missed your video's! Can you share what stylers you used this wash day please? 💖

I can’t burp either! My doctor just told me about this and I’m so excited to get the procedure!

I LOVE Pantene and found you because the formula changed and I'd hoped to find an alternative. (I have a huge basket of products I tried before finding Pantene! I really don't want to start over!) I see this video is a few years old... Curious if you have another product you've found lately that you might suggest I try? I love your curls! Especially the Pantene Curls!! TYIA!

I have an intermittent version of this. Sometimes I can burp normally with no issues, especially after drinking carbonated beverages. But sometimes I just can't. It comes out of the blue. And if I sit at a table and lay my head down on my arms on the table like I was trying to take a nap for a few minutes, it will cause the throat gurgles REALLY bad. That first started in my early 20s. The first time it started I was in an interview for a job at Sears. 😂 So awkward. There's an exercise (different from the one you showed) where you smile really wide and open your mouth up / act like your trying to shove a tennis ball behind your tongue. It works for alot of people!! My 12 year old son has this too. It causes him a ton of chest pain 😢

I'm a little late watching your videos. Unfortunately the protein treatment you recommended is unavailable. Have you found something better since this video is 4 years old?

I fairly recently learned. I have wavy hair. But it's definitely not curly, and I never felt compelled to follow the curly girl method. But oddly, I found the products that were working for me were all curly girl approved. And those that were not tended to weigh my hair down and almost completely eliminate the waves. And they made my hair feel weird. Long story short, i learned my fine hair does not like silicones. Not even the water washable kind. And the one sulfate shampoo I have irritates my scalp. So, while I don't care about all the rest of the stuff like parabens or alcohol or the like, I do watch for silicones and sulfates.

Gurl, you're coming here to talk about hair with that eyeshadow?! Leaving us all hanging! 3 years later... 😂💃🏼💅🏼

Omg! This is me!! My whole life! So many awkward moments “ewww what was that sound?!” “Well… thats my ‘burp’… I don’t really burp.. idk how” Then of course they don’t believe me. “What a lie, everyone burps, you’re not special” blah blah blah.

I'm a wavy girl but honestly the community is the exact same. I mean I try to get things without sulfates, and natural products but overall I would just say, experiment and see what works for you.

Btw I was the first diagnosed patient in UZ Leuven in Belgium. They did it via 24H manometry but here they do listen to you and try to look further. But in the medical world you sometimes need to look desperate to find a solution before they will take you seriously! Only 1 hospital in belgium does this botox injection!

I have done the gag reflex with my fingers for months whereas the relief came, I always did it 2 hours after a meal after having the dino sounds for these 2 hours. What happened was that as of now I can burp but not always. It gives some relief and some burps are quite "normal" other are aggressive and other are just really tiny but still a burp. Now I am going to the pre-operative appointment for botox later this month because I still have lots of dino sounds. I first thought it was my LES opening way too much as it seems like air is constantly escaping in my esophagus but I think I will get this treatment first and see what happens! But If you do a gag reflex without food coming out for quite some time you may develop some kind of burping naturally like me but in my case it didn't relieve the whole thing. I do need to say, when drinking carbonated drinks I burp way easier then before and it diminished the dino sounds for sure. First real burping developed after 2 months of gagging 2 hours after my meal! Cheers!

Por fin me siento comprendida. Por fin no estoy sola. Todo lo que cuentas es 100% lo que me pasa. En mi vida he podido eructar, aire encallado al esófago, malestar, dolor, barriga hinchada, ruidos igualitos al tuyo como si se tratase de una rana, y a la vez tengo pánico al vómito, como una fobia. Estoy desesperada y me estoy planteando el Botox pero soy cantante y tengo miedo que me cambie la voz. Gracias a todos y a Britt por toda la información. Empiezo a ver la luz al final del túnel.

I'm in high school and you've made me realize why my hair looks frizzy when i try to make it look flat

Did the Botox injections help with any acid reflux that you may have been suffering from?? I have never been able to burp and have been laughed at by physicians. I have also suffered from acid reflux for as long as I can remember and have been taking prescribed anti acid medication. I have self advocated to see a GI specialist for years with very little reception. I have recently had an endoscope done and have been diagnosed with irreversible precancerous Barrett’s Esophagus due to extensive acid reflux. A biopsy is being done to see if the cell tissues contain or could contain cancer. I am curious to see if there is a correlation between R-CPD and acid reflux. And if Botox would not only relieve my R-CPD symptoms but cure me of acid reflux. Any comments or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

This was so so helpful!! So good to see a review from someone who has the same hair type as me. What shampoo and conditioner do you like? I prefer silicone sulfate free but find it hard to find ones without shea butter.

Where bonnets or wraps touch around my hairline goes flat. And them I'm left with ugly curls it's probably user error. Any tips anyone?

Did you feel short of breathing while lying down after eating?

R-CPD is a nightmare. I have dealt with it my entire life but after getting bariatric surgery, which was a gastric bypass my RCPD ramped up and overdrive and I cannot get the Botox injections until next year. I’m barely hanging on by a thread I can’t go anywhere anymore. It’s constant and chronic “croaking” then passing unholy amounts of gas. 😞

I just learned that this is A THING and not just me. I go between being excited / happy and getting emotional. Your video is so validating. I’m waiting for my test procedure and appointment next month. ❤gurgle * gurgle ❤
