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.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
