Gas?

I'm 3 weeks post op and I noticed that after I'm done eating, my stomach makes lots of growling noises and I get lots of gas. It's awkward when I am at work and have customers lol! Does this happen to anyone else??

Yes definitely , especially a few weeks out. As time goes by you'll find some foods produce this more than others for you. I admit that I sometimes will eat extra light if I'm afraid of having gas during an important meeting, or just drink coffee with protein powder in it.

My doctor has me on Zantac for 3 months PO. It has helped with the gas. I wasn't taking it for about a week PO and my stomach sounded like a thunderstorm lol

It will last awhile Roscoe. So loud at times you will think everyone can hear it!
