clk 3,519 Posted October 14, 2010 My stomach makes gurgling noises all the time. Especially at night, when my acid reducers are wearing off and the acid is going nuts. For me, it's definitely acid but it sounds like a rumbling stomach from hunger. It even feels like hunger - almost. It's like the physical hungry symptoms without the urge to eat. It's weird and completely unladylike. It's kind of embarrassing. But in my case, it's definitely acid. Are you on an acid reducer? Could this be your issue, or could it be that something you ate aggravated your stomach? Tomatoes or raw green veggies are something my tummy is just now getting ready to eat, and if I ate them just a few weeks ago my stomach would go nuts for hours. ~Cheri Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NLWC.Christa 4 Posted October 14, 2010 My stomach gurgles a lot, I notice it mostly after i drink either Water or milk. There's no pain or discomfort associated with it, and I've joked with my surgeon that my sleeve talks to me. He's heard it and doesn't seem concerned. I do notice it more at the end of the work day or in the evening. I've also noticed that it has quieted down some in the last week or so (I'm 8 weeks post-op). To be honest, I feel so good and am so happy with my sleeve, I'm happy to put up with a talking tummy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
luvinitcuzican 8 Posted October 14, 2010 It just scared me that's all. It has stopped. I have never experienced something like that with my stomach. I have always had a very strong stomach, never gassy never nausiated, never gurgles....I was very lucky before in that but I also think that is one of the reasons I was able to comcume so much...because my stomach could handle ALOT.

sleeve 4 me 910 Posted October 15, 2010 I also was wondering about all the noises I'm hearing. I am going to ask my doctor about it at my follow up appointment next week. Sometimes it gets really bad, it's like what the heck is going on in there lol???? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Has anyone else had this problem? I am really geting concerned about this. The grugling is lloud very loud, no pain but it doesnt seem to be moving down at all. This seems like a pretty common occurrence for me. I'm 5wks post-op (well, almost 6) and my body is still making new noises depending on what I eat or drink. I can't complain too much, though - they don't bother anyone else and the weight is coming off! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
