Wierd Gurgling Noises!



Recommended Posts

Yesterday, I had a fill. It seemed to go well, and the floro indicated everything was normal.

The odd thing is... Last night, I was kept awake by odd, gurgling noises within my stomach. Most Perculiar.

I can drink fluids with no problems, and I feel fine - will these odd noises disappear, or will I be forever watching cable TV at three in the morning? (as unpleasant as it sounds).

I get this, especially when I have a good fill. My mom can even hear it when we talk on the phone. My hubby lays in bed and laughs at the "opera". It can be quite embarassing at times though lol...

So, the question I must ask is... Does it go away, and how long does it take?

I LOVE my noises, it tells me my band is at work..

in my experience, if your filled good.. they dont go away.

(these should not be uncomfortable or cause chest pain in anyway.. the ones I aam talking about)

So, the question I must ask is... Does it go away, and how long does it take?

I experience it most often if I'm filled too much (in which case a small 0.1ml unfill usually fixes it). Also, if I've eaten too close to bedtime or if its during the daytime and I've eaten too much at a meal.

Its not a constant thing for me now, but a few months ago when I was quite tight, it happened alot. I've also started making sure I 'rinse' my pouch out by drinking lots of Water, before I go to bed .. that seems to have helped.

As with anything though, be sure to mention it to your doctor if it concerns you. Mine told me it was normal to experience it occasionally.

Oh .. I've been meaning to ask .. do you play (the piano) or are you just a fan of Billy Joel?

Thanks for that info!

During the evening, I am a piano player - sometimes professionally, sometimes just for fun. I play at weddings, in restaurants, that sort of thing.

Of course, the problem with playing the piano is... I'm sat down - it's probably the worst instrument for weight loss. :)

LOL .. I play the computer, both for work and for fun, so I feel your pain. Atleast your instrument makes beautiful music - mine gives me a "chatter's arse" hehe.

Believe me, "Piano Player's Arse" is a very similar condition!

At least when you're using a computer, no-one's saying "Play it again, Sam" EVERY half an hour.

(not that I'm bitter, you understand) :)

***UPDATE***

I'm very pleased to say my gurgling noises have stopped, and the only thing keeping me awake at night is my dog's snoring. (see attached) :cake:

Must have been the band adjustment settling down a little.

If you think he's adorable now, you should have seen him when he was a pup! (attached pic, with my dad holding him):confused:

Why can't they stay like this, instead of growing up, and playing a swift game of "steal the TV remote, for attention"?:)

It's a Basset Hound. They are cute, but very stubborn - try getting a TV remote back from a Basset, and you'll know what I mean.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
