Yes, I am in week five and still have these gurgling noises. I had them with the lap band also. I called them plumbing noises as it sounds like water slowly going down a stopped up drain. I too am afraid of eating and or drinking too much. Consequently I am not eating very much at all. I just need to remind myself that it will not be like this forever.

I am 4 days post op and I am struggling with food and water issues. Very little of what I am allowed to eat or drink pass for food. Several "foods" are already making me gag. On the bright side, my stomach/abdomen are less sore each day and I am feeling a little stronger every day. However, I am talking to myself and telling myself to just "hang" in there and I wil be fine.

I would enjoy chatting with you or any other "newbies" in the group.
