Stomach Gurgles

Ok, so I am not sure about everyone else, and it could be that this is more geared towards the fact that I had a hiatel repair as well as the sleeve, but every time I drink or eat anything my stomach gurgles so loudly. :wacko: It actually feels like an hour glass is now my route to my stomach. My daughter was laying next to me in bed, she is 12 and we were watching TV and she looked at me and said, :o OMG was that your stomach! :lol: LOL It doesn't hurt but it is annoying! I seriously hope that this is just due to swelling since I am 2 weeks out from surgery. Does anyone else experience this?

  • Mine does too! Sometimes I can halfway belch and it helps. I can tell that my stomach is trying to work between the sounds and the pain

  • Yes, at first it is comically loud, it settles down after a bit (SOME). I'm over 2 years out and when empty my stomach still gurgles loudly, not quite loud enough for others to hear but I do AND feel

Yep, mine gurgles all the time. Between myself and my dog I don't know who's stomach is louder. :)

Yup - mine does this all the time too. Sleeved 12/20/12. Doesn't bother me....just reminds me everything is working! :wacko:

I am 2 days post op and my stomach gargles after each sip. except mine sort of hurts. It almost feels like the gargle is going up my esophogus. It was so bad last night that I threw up. please tell me it will get better.

I was sleeved on 1/7..my stomach is so loud especially if my mouth is open!

I've been sleeved for a month and a day...(Yay!)..and mine does the same thing.

Perfectly normal, I suspect that it's like you suggest, everything getting funneled into that narrow space.

I find it funny, actually. Between me and my mom (gastric bypass 12 yrs out) Christmas break was hilarious! My dad just rolled his eyes.

Just curious, of those of you that are having the gurgles, how many are taking some sort of PPI? Sort of doing my own survey....

I am on liquid Zantac.

I am on my third day of omeprazole and it has made a world of difference! No more reflux and no more gurgling stomach.

I take omeprazole daily, my stomach still gurgles. Maybe if I drink a Pepsi the gurgling will stop. (J/k)
