Do the uncontrollable gurgles after eating ever go away? It's so embarrassing to accidently have a gurgle/burp fall out of your mouth when talking. If they don't go away, does anything help keep them to a minimum?

I've noticed that the faster I eat, the more they happen. That and if I don't take my acid blocker everyday or I take it at the wrong time. That may just be me though!

I'm 4 months out and still gurgle. It happens with certain foods or if I eat too fast. I was embarrassed by it at first, but now I just make jokes about it when it happens.

Nine months out here... still happening! BUT, the good news, much, much less! Also, certain foods cause it and others don't. I also have a better sense of "the gurgles" coming on and I slow things down -- taking a loger break before the next bite. Overall I can say, it does get better! :-)

A couple of days ago I had the gurgles all day and night! Ugh. That was the day I was very noshy and gave in to snacking. I didn't do too bad, ate about 200 calories of cherries and some corn chips, and a little chicken leg.

Since then, and most days, I haven't had this problem to that extent. I wonder what exactly causes it because it is a pain.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
