I’m over three months post op and I have absolutely loved my bypass until a few weeks ago when it was time to go back to school. My stomach is making very loud noises during lectures and having 150 students look at me because it’s distracting them is beyond embarrassing for me.

I’ve tried everything I can think of. Different foods, eating before lectures, even during. I tried not eating an hour before thinking maybe the noise was my stomach digesting. But no matter what I try I can’t seem to do anything about it and if this doesn’t change I don’t think I can handle being in class.

It would suck to switch to online classes. Hoping any of you have tips on what might help!

I don't have help for the current situation, but for most people, the stomach noise dies down after a while. Mine hardly ever growls now.

I hope it gets better soon. I had the sleeve and do not recall growling. I do get a lot of air bubbles tho.
