Bentyl and acidic burps/ gas

I started taking Bentyl on Friday, although I'm not all that interested in trying medication at the moment. I feel like I'm doing pretty well on the diet (except when I'm traveling and let my stomach get empty between meals and then eat what is too much for my tum, or "that time of month"). But, anyway, I would be perfectly content to keep fine-tuning the diet. I actually feel kind of bullied into the medicine by my doc. But anyway, I've decided I might as well give it a fair shake. (Since I have to... )

I've been really tired the last few days, although that might be because I had surgery Thursday (although I read that the "tired" after surgery is usually the anesthesia hanging on, and I didn't have any anesthesia/ pain killers, etc), so maybe it is the Bentyl.

But, even more bothersome, today when I was standing quietly in line at about noon after church, I believe I burped, and then felt this horribly corrosive feeling in my throat, and a bitter taste that didn't fade for hours. I hadn't eaten anything weird or spicy, just my usual oatmeal for breakfast, and we were on the way to lunch. I've continued burping more than usual, and although it doesn't burn quite as much as that first time it still takes terribly bitter/ acidic. My farts are more "pungent" and hot feeling also.

Has anyone experienced this with Bentyl? Does it last?
