  • Yep I got the gurgles It's an odd feeling really, but I agree with @@Bandista it's that esophagus moving the food through the stoma. I think when we chew, and drink a little bit of air gets mixed up

  • Moi, aussi. The gurgle. My husband says he can't hear it but geesh. I don't really mind too much -- I figure it's the esophagus squeezing that message to my brain that I am nourished and healthy ra

  • I had the gurgles also after getting my next to the last fill that I got. I was at the dentist and they were cleaning my teeth and it was gurgling. I felt horribly embarrased and had to apologize:(. E

That gurgling stinks! It's socially awkward- just talking with someone in person or on the phone, and suddenly, deep body gurgle sounds (gas) piping its' way loudly up your throat & out your mouth.

In a way, it mirrors poor upbringing- bad manners- like your parents didn't teach you to control your unpleasant body sounds, unlike tummy rumbles (hunger) which are uncontrollable.

I remember I dated a guy a long time ago and he had that gurgling when he talked (DEF. not a wls patient). It was one of the reasons I couldn't bear being with him any longer, esp. in public.

Now I do it, and for me, it's embarrassing. I wish it would stop or I could learn how to control it without the gurgles popping out unexpectedly at the most inappropriate times.

I gurgled up yo 8 weeks. It was better than gas lol

Maybe gurgling is the 'secret handshake' for bandsters. lol

ROFL!

I have had the gurgle from day one. I have basically just gotten used to it. Sometimes it does happen and cause a little embarrassment, but I figured it was just apart of it. I even started taking pro-biotics but it still doesn't seem to help. So, I accepted it for what it is.
