Any other burping freaks out there?

Thanks to all of you who answered my last post.

I'm still hoping to recruit more people to my burping freaks gang (will have to think of a more catchy name..)

Anyone else out there suffer from a feeling of trapped air (rather than gas produced by foods):-

- in the chest, which makes you feel like you need to burp?
- across the belly button - if I crouch down and press just to the left of my belly button the air seems to come up
- feeling like you need to catch a deep breath whilst you're eating?
- glass-shattering, unearthly-sounding and very unlady-like burps?
- sound of air gurgling back up the oesophagus?

I don't think this is about what I eat - more to do with how I eat really (i.e. too fast, rushed etc)

Am drinking fennel tea like there's no tomorrow and have started taking acacia, which I hope will help...

Is there a U.K. equivalent to Beano? And would this help with trapped air anyway?

I'd love to hear from anyone who can help.
