Not sure, but if you are worried, call your surgeon's office. I had a slip; it was not like that, but then, I guess that this could be a slip, too! Best wishes. Karen

Dont know bout bout loose bowels but gurgling is due to the flem- I usually have it the mornings, some times I can eat some times I cannot- MY GP said it was my sinus drainage and it takes forever to break up. Hot tea or liquids help- still ask your DR.

Ok thanks , I been reading about slips and I'm a worry wart , when it started gurgling I thought oh no ! I don't know what a slip would feel like? If it hurts or what? And the soon as I could get app to see the doc in nov 30th , but, if gurgling is norm , then I feel ok , thank you , still gurgles and sometimes it feels like , you know when you pregant and the baby kicks u a little in the ribs , that's what it feels like and the gurgles are like tickles kindof , wierd , what does a slip feel like and how did u know it slipped?

Slips are usually found by your surgeon during a flouroscope. I had trouble keeping anything down, including Water. But, a slip can happen anytime, and you might not even know. best wishes, see your surgeon for further advise about the phlem It can be, also, from the digestion activity. Best wishes. Karen

I have had gurgling as well. I figured it was a bug or something. It feels weird. I took some of the anti nausea pills I had left over from surgery and it helped. If it continues, it sure what to do. I am going to bring up with doctor next appt.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
