Hey!

I have a bit of a weird question, how big of an issue are stomach noises post-op? I have read on these forums that this happens many and am a bit concerned because I have quite a bit of schooling left (6 years) where I have to sit in quiet class rooms. Mainly, how long does the growling last after surgery? Thanks!

Surgery date, of 5/17/13, and my stomach growls all the time as well. When I wake up, am laying down, when I am walking around. It has nothing to do with the eating or drinking. I'm having what sounds like the same things you are having. I don't know how long it lasts. This Friday will be 2 weeks post-op for me. You?

Hey I actually haven't been sleeved yet! I am still pre-op, however this is an area of concern for me as it would have a great impact on my life. I hope it stops for you soon, congrats on 2 weeks!

i am 7 months out and it still happens.. It gurgles and rumble and growls but not consistently.. The only time it bothers me is when I am in a meeting and it starts up.. It has no problem making it self heard HAHAHA! I either ignore it or if appropriate try to say something funny.. Everyone at works knows I had surgery so I have prewarned them as well.. It is what it is and I am just so glad I am losing weight..

Do they ever stop? I wonder if anyone 1 or 2 years post-op can shed some light??

Rejoice! They do stop and you won't even notice when they did. Mine stopped by 2-3 month out. But they can be embarrassing. Just keep taking your med and eat.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?
