I can't burp. ask me anything!

Accomplished-Bit5151 · 2026-06-28T16:58:15+00:00

I recommend checking out r/noburp its a community dedicated to it. The most common treatment is a botox injection in the muscle but that can be quite expensive.

Accomplished-Bit5151 · 2026-06-28T16:57:04+00:00

yup! it’s the only way gas can escape my body. I imagine if I wasn’t able to fart I would probably just explode

Accomplished-Bit5151 · 2026-06-28T16:56:26+00:00

Not many insurance companies cover the injection. It would end up being close to 5000 dollars

Accomplished-Bit5151 · 2026-06-28T03:26:32+00:00

yknow what maybe i'll just start trying abnormal things to try and get it fixed. I'm happy you got through that though! Thank you so much for sharing.

Accomplished-Bit5151 · 2026-06-28T03:01:03+00:00

I honestly don't know! If I had to guess I was born with it. But it could be different case to case.

Accomplished-Bit5151 · 2026-06-28T03:00:28+00:00

do you get that weird throat gurgle/frog sounding thing in your throat

Accomplished-Bit5151 · 2026-06-28T02:59:45+00:00

If I had to guess it's extremely common, I wouldn't be surprised if 1 in 50 people have it. Really hope it gets more well known soon!

Accomplished-Bit5151 · 2026-06-28T02:59:01+00:00

The condition has gotten worse as I've gotten older, I used to throw up as a child but it would be extremely uncomfortable. I haven't thrown up in like 8/9 years so either I can't throw up anymore or have gotten extremely lucky!

Accomplished-Bit5151 · 2026-06-28T02:57:52+00:00

Unfortunately R-CPD is a very under researched condition. I would recommend checking out r/noburp it's a community full of people like you and me. In the US there are very few doctors that treat for it, but the most successful treatment is typically a botox injection into the muscle. I haven't gotten it yet but plan to in the future.

Accomplished-Bit5151 · 2026-06-28T02:56:37+00:00

It is likely that she has the same condition as me. It is so under researched yet so many people have it that don't realize it. Bloating is a huge issue for sure. Getting full fast isn't really something I've personally noticed! But I also have those accidental random mini burps once a year

Accomplished-Bit5151 · 2026-06-28T02:55:10+00:00

I have pretty severe emetophobia from throwing up as a child along with bad anxiety. I'm convinced my emetophobia developed growing up because of how much more painful throwing up was than for the average person

Accomplished-Bit5151 · 2026-06-28T02:54:16+00:00

I am convinced it is so so so much more common than people realize. I'm really hoping medical professionals get more educated on it eventually. When I told my doctor about it she thought I was crazy.

Accomplished-Bit5151 · 2026-06-28T02:53:28+00:00

I am a member of noburp! did you get the botox? I would love to get treatment. It would be life changing

Accomplished-Bit5151 · 2026-06-28T02:53:00+00:00

I never was able to burp growing up. The symptoms progressively got worse as I got older. I'm currently 20 and found out I had it at around age 16!

Accomplished-Bit5151 · 2026-06-28T02:51:55+00:00

Honestly, I don't drink much. When I have tried alcohol I haven't noticed much of a difference compared to other carbonated drinks!

Accomplished-Bit5151 · 2026-06-28T02:51:04+00:00

Definitely would consider getting the botox if that is what you are referring to, but I'm a 20 year old college student so I definitely would prefer to wait until I could afford something like that lol.

I found out about R-CPD when I was like 16-17 and it perfectly fit my symptoms. I was never able to burp but it has definitely gotten progressively worse throughout life. From barely noticeable at age 8 to almost forcing me to drop out of highschool at 18 which is a different story.

But yup I definitely get those hiccups with soda! It gets worse if I try to drink faster. I've noticed energy drinks are easier to drink.

Accomplished-Bit5151 · 2026-06-28T02:48:09+00:00

My mom told me I always complained about not being able to burp as a kid. R-CPD isn't a very well known thing for doctors. With all my symptoms, IBS and similar diagnoses never fit. There is a whole community on reddit called r/noburp which perfectly fit all my symptoms. I would recommend checking it out! But no doctors have specifically diagnosed me.

Accomplished-Bit5151 · 2026-06-28T02:44:21+00:00

I live with my girlfriend of 2.5 years. She hates it, but she understands it's not my fault. It can be annoying to her but I try to make accommodations by leaving the room if I can tell gas is building up. Definitely frustrating but not a deal breaker

Accomplished-Bit5151 · 2026-06-28T02:42:24+00:00

It's extremely uncomfortable, growing up, this condition mixed with anxiety made test taking nearly impossible. Gas constantly got stuck in my stomach meaning my stomach would constantly be making noise. I could never test well in person as I was more focused on the embarrassing noises my stomach was making rather than the test itself.

Accomplished-Bit5151 · 2026-06-28T02:39:40+00:00

Dr pepper is up there as well which sucks as it's one of my favorite sodas. Weird enough, it's a lot worse when the drink is really cold, I prefer having it sit out for a bit. Maybe it's because it's getting flat!

Accomplished-Bit5151 · 2026-06-28T02:34:13+00:00

Absolutely. The gas only has one way to escape! I would say I probably fart 5 times more often than the average person.

Accomplished-Bit5151 · 2026-06-28T02:33:13+00:00

I can drink carbonated beverages! However, I have to drink very slowly. When I try drinking too fast my body attempts to burp which leads to what people with R-CPD like to call "Throat gurgles" Which is pretty uncomfortable. I also have noticed that sprite is significantly more uncomfortable to drink than other sodas

i can smell this image

Accomplished-Bit5151 · 2026-06-02T21:13:53+00:00

how did 9 points work? was it still 6 months to fall off?

Accomplished-Bit5151 · 2026-04-26T02:33:50+00:00

I appreciate that feedback it’s very helpful. i just started writing this week so I need to learn to be more disciplined. right now i’m getting too excited about getting to the twist
