matt1912 316 Posted April 21, 2014 I was sleeved on Apr 17. When I drink, which is all I can do at the moment, if feels and sounds like there is a gas exchange happening or the Water is replacing gas in my stomach. Is that what the bubbling and grumbling is and does this last? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LindafromFlorida 1,542 Posted April 21, 2014 We are all different so no one can tell you this. There can be bigger things to worry about so don't stress over little noises your stomach will make. Get used to them! Good luck! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
matt1912 316 Posted April 21, 2014 Thank you Linda. I'm not stressing over it at all- I am 100% on board, but I was wondering if this was a common post op symptom. 1 LindafromFlorida reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gomekast 559 Posted April 21, 2014 Many people have had this yes..it does go away. I used a heating pad on my belly until all the gas was gone. That said...I still have moments where a liquid or bite of food replaces that and up comes a giant belch. I'm 6 months post op. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LindafromFlorida 1,542 Posted April 21, 2014 At 5 months post op we still get gurgling and crazy noises, and minor gas problems. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
