I think the gurgling goes on for a little while. I did; however, puree some cream of potato Soup and strain it for any chunks and the starch in that seemed to help stop some of the gurgling (acid moving around in the stomach).

Also, I take a Prilosec 40mg daily - which really helps in that area too.

Good Luck!

The gurgling is the worst part of this while thing ... For me anyway. Gas X strips really help.

3.5 months out and I still gurgle. Trying to just get used to it, lol. And I'm on a PPI.

And gas-x, I only used them the first 5 days or so. Sure would have had so much more discomfort without it. I wonder why some people aren't allowed?

Not sure, but I feel like they are a life saver. The gurgling is annoying and embarrassing.

Hi Susan

Nice to see you are up and moving. How are you feeling?

Thanks, my time!

I'm doing very well. My parents have been amazing at helping me remember to sip, sip, sip & Protein, Protein, protein! My only issues at this point are that my navel incision is still pretty sore & my middle back is killing me. (Well, those things AND the amusing gurgling!!)

How are YOU doing? You must be on phase 4 by now, right?

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
