I was sleeved on the 1st and I'm having a really hard time getting fluids in. Every time I take a sip my stomach gurgles and I burp, it's pretty uncomfortable! I'm only a couple of days out so I don't know if this is gas or just something that happens now.

Has anyone else experienced this and what can I do to lessen all the rumbling so I can actually get my Fluid and Protein in?!

Well, my new tummy sounded like a dinosaur fight for about two months, and then it settled down.

Same here! I was sleeved 11/30 & the last 2 days I started to tolerate the liquids more but it's constant growling & moving. At times when I sip something I have to take it slow because the pain starts. It will get easier I promise!

Yes I had that too. I was so uncomfortable with even the tiniest sip that I did a really bad job at getting in fluids and got pretty dehydrated. I'm 11 days post-op and it definitely gets way easier (but my tummy still makes lots of noises)!

Sleeved 11/19 happens every time I drink. It's annoying. Some peoples goes away others no. Try smaller sips for now.

I'm 11 1/2 weeks out and I still have that gurgling. It's annoying. Hopefully it will eventually go away but as for me no such luck yet.

I'm 6 weeks out today and I have that when I eat. It's pretty amusing at the dinner table, but I'm ready for it to stop. I also get the hiccups regularly after I eat, and that is really annoying.

I get the gurgles and pain that comes with it. it's the worst pain that I have experienced. I take smaller sips and it doesn't seem to help. Sleeved 4/20

Try taking some GasX or Zantac. Also try different temp fluids to see if any are better. Good luck.

I was sleeved 4 years ago and after I eat I have a very noisy stomach. No more pain but it has become the joke in the house about moms noisy stomach. I think it's normal.

I'm six and a bit months out and although I'm not gurgling as much, I still have to burp silently a few times to be able to get food down. Though I still get random embarrassing gurgles haha.

      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.
