Hey everyone! I just hit my 3 week post op mark! Woohoo! Though, I've regretted this surgery since about Day 2 because of all the issues I'm having. Don't feel too comfortable going into those issues on this forum. However, every single time I eat or drink something, my sleeve starts gurgling and crying and whatnot haha. It's embarrassing. My husband is always like "are you still hungry?" Bless his heart, he always offers more food because he thinks I'm still hungry due to those sounds.

Anyone else experience this? Does it go away over time? Anything that can help? If it helps at all, I take Nexium in the morning.

My friend had the surgery 5 years ago and used to refer to that as her 'wookie' :D. I think it lasted quite a while, she just got used to it.

I'm a little over 6 weeks post op, and had those the whole first month or so.

They seem to have subsided. The only thing I'm still experiencing is the sort of audible gurgling sound in my throat when I lie down.

Mine definitely got better and less noticeable over time. You are still swollen and healing. If it's still happening at 3 MONTHS out, then you can start to worry it might never go away.

Six months out and from time to time my stomach sounds like Chewbacca. Just sayin'. It doesn't mean anything. It's just doing its job.

It happens from time to time with me but is lessening as I heal. I'm almost 4 months post op and all of that is settling down.

The more you heal the better things will be. Hang in there!

Happened a lot in the beginning, now just happens occasionally.

I actually had a RYN and had the same thing. It did go away with time, just your stomach adjusting

Lol. My stomach gurgling noises especially when I'm at work. Whoever is around, I tell them to keep it down.

Totally normal! The first two months mine made so much noise, it was weird. Now it mostly only does it when I eat something that I haven't eaten with my sleeve yet, or it's just digesting oddly.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
