3 days post op, stomach gurling causing pain



Recommended Posts

Hello

I was discharged last night from hospital. My only Complaint is the gurgling going on in stomach (I think). Shortly after I drink I get what feels like air or gurgling. It's painful. It only lasts a few seconds and then relieves itself but it hurts. Does anyone know what this is or have any information for me? Am I drinking too much? I feel like I haven't been drinking at all.

My stomach did it too, it will get better and then not hurt as much. It's been 2 weeks for me and my stomach stills does it, it's like all the air is rising to the top and then released.

Yea that's what it feels like. Ok. Thank you. So I should continue to drink so I don't get dehydrated. I've been afraid to continue drinking.

Yes keep drinking slowly. Don't get dehydrated. That will be a whole other problem.

I experienced the same thing until about day 5, then it got much better. Good luck!

I'm on day 14 and still get the stomach gurgles depending on what I eat. I quickly found out that sugar-free Jello and sugar-free popsicles cause major gas pains almost immediately after the first bite. So you might want to pay attention to what you're eating and see which ones are causing the most gas.

I asked for a sugar free pop and they brought me some sugar free Water ice.....I highly recommend it for getting in fluids and get off your narcotic drugs and you will feel so much better! I an on day 3 and getting discharged and what a difference from yesterday! I threw up so much I thought I was going to die! Good luck!

Emersldeye- sugar free Water ice. What is that made of, do you know? Thanks for the suggestions and responses. You've really helped me calm down and not worry about that pain.

Getting off the narcotics helped, then getting past liquid phase and eating Greek yogurt and probiotic powder fixed it for me. I had that really bad for a couple weeks!

I am one week out from being sleeved and found benefit with using a small straw and taking in small amounts of Propel Water and warm Lipton Tea to provide me relief from that pain and stomach gurgling issue. good Luck!!

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
