Does your throat make noises after you drink?



Recommended Posts

I am 3 weeks post op and I have noticed my throat makes weird noises after I drink. It doesn't matter how big or little the drink is or what I'm drinking. It does it with Decaf tea, Water, etc. It doesn't hurt or anything and it's really hard to explain how it feels. Is this too much swallowed air or what? It's almost like an empty stomach feeling but in my throat. :P

My throat makes gurgling noises after I drink or after I eat. Doc said that won't last forever. I really don't care since no one else can hear it but me, altho it feels a little weird.

Ha, yeah, it makes me laugh because it just goes on forever and sounds so ridiculous.

Mine does this too and I wondered if it happened to others. Especially when I first lay down at bedtime. Sounds loud to me and usually makes me smile cuz I remember the reason for it is my decision to change. :-)

Mine did the same thing but it got better over time.

Mine does a lot. I call my sleeve my lead pipe (after an episode from Futurama) and I swear everything I drink turns into a metal ball clinking its way down my pipe! It's so loud and embarrasses me!

Mine does it too. :)

And it always seems to do it while I am on the phone at work. I just know the other person is thinking, what the heck! :D

      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?
