VERY Rumble-y Gut

[Amylou 206]

Some days, the guts are nice and quiet. Other days, they sound like a storm is rolling in. Does anyone else have a very loud upper gut post-op?

Have you found anything that helps quiet it down?

Yup, I have lots of loud rumbly days. My family awards asks if I'm hungry, I'm not, kids just noisy.

Some say acid reducers may help. Personally since there is no medical problem, I won't take anything for it.

I found that when I cut out dairy products my rumbly gut went away. I now eat greek yogurt and occasionally cheese and they bring it back, but if I stick to just Fairlife milk, I have no rumbly gut problems. Perhaps that will help you too.

My grouch pouch is always making noise. My family can here it and it does not matter what I do. Honestly I don't even think twice about it anymore.

I'm two years out and it still makes a ton of noise!

Mine does too

I take Gas-X and/or Zantac and drink some Water. Sometimes it helps. Depends on the reason.

I'm 3 days out and mine is rumbling like crazy. Any suggestions?

Five months post RNY and I've come to accept it. It gets loud enough sometimes that it even scares the cat if she's near me. I suspect some of the dairy (Greek yogurt) I eat may have something to do with it, but it doesn't cause me any pain. Generally a little Water helps it go away.

I'm five months post op as well. I find that when I'm extremely empty is when I grumble a lot! It's so weird!

I'm five months out and my stomach is super rumbly sometimes after eating or drinking. I honestly don't know why it's louder some days than others. I just ignore and so far my coworkers have been too polite to say anything if they've noticed.

I too have a grouch pouch. I haven't been able to figure out what causes the rumble gut.
