Throat Growling - Making Noises @#$%#$



Recommended Posts

So this mostly happens when full or near full?

I think it differs fir each person. For me, I gurgle after each sip.

Is it similar to the sound the tummy makes when hungry or have gas? Is the sound coming from near the tummy or the throat? Do other WLS cause this?

My office buddy says she can't hear it, but its like Mt St helen to me. I just wanna crawl under my desk!

I just bought a hot chocolate from StarBucks down from my office and its not doing it to me...only food.

UGH~ Not worth eating in front of someone when it happens. lol

I think is nearest to the tummy, or between those two places.

I have been sleeved since December 2011. I had a pretty normal recovery however my doctor says I am just a very sensitive little girl. I have had since day one that gurgling or burping sound anytime I drank or ate anything. I spoke with my doctor about it. He said it is weird but normal. He said it will soon go away. So I am thinking okay soon means like a few weeks to a couple months. Well it did start to go away. It stopped after I drank but still happens when I eat. I am still doing it only after I eat. It is slowly but surely going away. I dont do it all the time. Mostly when I eat to much or to fast. I dont think it means that when you start to do it to stop eating. I think that it means we should eat slower to let the food pass down to our stomachs. I have learned to live with it but it will go away almost totally if I stay patient and I am sure it will for you too. Remember I am a "very sensitive little girl" per my doctor so everything takes much longer for me to get over. May start to see it go away a lot sooner for you if it has not done so already. I wish you all the luck.

I am 10 weeks and it happens to me. It sounds loud but I don't think others can hear it. LOL It happens when I drink to fast or have something that upsets my sleeve. I at some spicy tuna last night and roxie (my sleeve) was pissed off and I thought an alien would come flying out of my throat. LOL

I'm almost a year out and this still happens to me. I think it's funny. Small price to pay!

I have that also and I'm glad to see that I am not alone in it. It is a bit embarrassing but I just figured I'd better get used to it.

      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.
