Stomach Gurgling

[HealthyLifeStyle 351]

My belly makes so much noise even if I don't eat anything. It is so loud that my hubby heard it in the living room while we were watching a movie, with the volume on the tv up. It is a little bit embarrassing, and weird. If I eat something it is so much worse. It is constantly making noises. I am 6 months post op, and noticed it got worse last month. Now it is crazy. Is this happening to anyone else?

Yep. My post-surgical tummy is quite "vocal". I'm not sure why that is, I just chalked it up to the structural changes the surgery made to my digestive tract.

I see that your quite a long way from surgery. I was hoping it would get better in time. It seems to be getting worse as time goes on.

Yeah, sorry to say, it doesn’t show any signs of going away. It doesn’t really bother me but it is notable.

Yup - ALL THE TIME... Doesn't matter if I've eaten, what I've eaten, when I've eaten... etc.... I tell myself it's the beast churning and burning!

It is interesting to see that sleeve's also have this. I am a bypass patient and wondered if this only happened to us. This is one thing, they never talked about in any of the classes.

I'm 2+ years out. Mine got much better, but didn't totally go away. I'm used to it now (along with my burping and hiccups, lol)

I had a Loop DS 6 months ago, and my stomach has become pretty noisy. It's better than it was the first month or so but it still makes quite a bit of noise
