I believe this is quite common.

Well ... what's going on is you had 85% of your stomach removed. The stomach is the mechanical part of digestion, so, with 85% missing, the remaining 15% has a bit of work to do. Where the stomach was a vast expanse before, it is now a tiny sleeve smaller than a banana. Air is going to get trapped and released differently than it did pre-sleeve.

I'm over two years out and my tummy still makes more noise than it did pre-surgery.

my stomach sounds like a cross between someone stepping on a creaky floor, a child trying to play the cello for the first time, and an elk bugling during mating season. Every time I eat and for about 30 minutes after. Luckily the volume is pretty low so I haven't embarrassed myself at work or anything! I'm four months out too.

I actually just described my noises as trumpet sounds like there is a tummy parade going on. Luckily no one has actually heard it except my husband who thinks its fascinating and wants to purchase a stethascope so he can listen better. He's strange :)

Stomach grumbling...yes . Me too! And it's been It's been a year for me and sometimes it is loud enough for someone sitting right next to me to hear! Really embarrassing! Of course it's particularly worse when I eat sweets.

LOL! 10/30 Sleever and my son thinks my noisy tummy is hilarious!!!
