Right after surgery they could not believe how fast I got up to walk around the hospital I was so nervous about the clotting. I am still on stage 2 until I go back to see my surgeon April 13th. Can anyone tell me have they felt like something is moving around in there stomach and I also hear growling noises is that normal?

You feel like there is a little alien in there trying to communicate with you? If so, that's normal!! From what I hear it's a lifetime thing so guess we might as well get used to it.

I just had surgery 3 days ago and I have been experiencing the gurgling also...I figured that it was just my stomach growling...it feels like more like a purr rather than the roar I would get before the surgery.

      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.
