I'm 3 days post op and feeling pretty great!! But I constantly have a rumbling/gurgling in my belly. Like from my butt to my ribs, is this normal. It's not a hunger pang, or a BM coming either. Just gurgling!!

Maybe a call to your Dr to reassure yourself everything is fine.

Totally normal. I still have it at almost 3 months, but not as bad. Still have hiccups too!

Totally normal and it does eventually stop. I'm almost 8 weeks out and my tummy no longer makes sounds like a freight train rolling through the house! Thank goodness!

Its that wonderful gas they put in us during surgery. It has no way out until absorbed. Mine still does a figure 8 in my upper body. Lol

      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?
