christinems4280 8 Posted January 27, 2016 Hi People, Do any of you experience really LOUD tummy noises immediately after (or even sometimes during) eating? When I'm home I don't mind since I'm alone, but at work (especially when it's quiet), it's really embarassing. Is this caused by something specific? Can anything be done about it? Thanks!

Ellenomore 25 Posted January 27, 2016 My stomach made a lot of noise right after surgery. However, a few weeks after surgery it isn't quite as loud unless I eat something gassy like chili. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NovaL 41 Posted January 27, 2016 I had the bypass and mine does this only 2 weeks post op today, had an appointment with my NUT in Monday and she said the noises are the stomach cleaning itself. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pillar2butterfly 391 Posted January 27, 2016 Noisy tummy always here....always after eating, no matter what it is or how much I've chewed it. It's just my new "normal". Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

christinems4280 8 Posted January 27, 2016 My tummy sounded like a dinosaur fight for months. Hahaha yes! That's exactly what it sounds like!!! It's just embarassing, but I wonder if it sounds as loud to someone else as it does to me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Proud2BMe 1,016 Posted January 27, 2016 Yep. It's as loud as my dogs' stomachs. What's shocking is that a loud as it is I would figure there would be some form of pain associated with it but nope. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

KristenLea91 13 Posted February 1, 2016 Mines horrible. We named him Oscar; the lion in my tummy. My surgeon said it's "waves" coming up from your small intestine during digesting/moving fluids through your body. He showed me it during my post op upper GI. It was pretty interesting to watch...and hear. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

libby43 136 Posted February 24, 2016 I was just thinking this today. I'm 8 months out and my stomach makes all kind of noise. My husband always telling me need to eat your hungry. Told him many time doesn't mean I need to eat or hungry. He finally stopped after realizing my stomach make noise while eat after eating. Think it's still angry at me for having 85% cut out.
