Tummy feeling weird

[dgsleeve 1]

I am now 7 weeks post op but I did have a leak and was fed through IV for most of the 7 weeks. I am tolerating food in very small quantities but my question is : Is it normal for your stomach to feel strange for a while. I can't call it pain Just an odd bubbly feeling. I don't have reflux so I don't think it's that. After the hell u went through right after surgery I just want to make sure this is normal.

My throat and tummy were bubbly and noisy for a few days after surgery. I'm not sure what is normal, especially with the earlier complication you mentioned. I'm that person who will call the surgeon's office with any question/concern - that would be my recommendation to you.

I hope you're feeling better and that you are over the hump on the leak. Good luck to you.

I am 7 weeks post-op and have had the "bubbly" feeling for several weeks. It started when I began eating the soft and pureed foods. It almost feels like air in my stomach is being displaced as the food goes down. I believe it's normal, but you can always check with your surgeon if you're concerned.

I have that too. Started at around week 3. The bubbles sort of feel like champagne is popping open in my stomach.I'm very aware of it but it does not hurt. I do hear other noises too. I think it started when I went from all liquid to a teaspoon of soft food. I had an easy 2 weeks but the last 2 have been more difficult with my stomach trying to adjust and my intestines not doing what intestines are supposed to do!
