nanny02 2 Posted August 1, 2012 Hi, I had my surgery 07/25 so 1 week post -op today. For the most part I am doing ok but my sleeve keeps growling and making crazy sounds. When it does that it hurts? also hurts a whole lot when I try to drink my flids and Protein. How long does this last? will it get worst as I am allowed to move up in stages of what i can eat? Thanks for the support! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's like a baby learning to cope with it, I have used infa care a wind medicine for babies (my dietian advised this). I now find that if I take tiny sips of Water and small amounts of food my new stomach can cope with it. Don't give up it just takes time to adjust. It's the best thing I have ever done!

Izuri 428 Posted August 2, 2012 My sleeve makes all sorts of weird noises too. Most of them don't hurt, but some do. It seems like the smaller sips I take and more time I take having meals, the less noise it makes. Also if I try and eat every 2 hours it's less talkative too.

GivingItMyAll 168 Posted August 2, 2012 Glad to hear your feeling better. I didn't have a drain, so no help there. I will tell you that every time I advance to a new phase of food my stomach makes all of these weird gurgling noises. It doesn't hurt, but is very loud. It cracks me up every.single.time. It only lasts for a day or so. Sent from my iPad using VST Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RissyRoe 25 Posted August 3, 2012 I'm having the same problem, I thought I was alone! It hurts at times to swallow and I'm hearing all this gurgling and rumbling and I'm still struggling with gas. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I still haven't burped or farted any. If I take to big of a drink then that hurts too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
