Does your stomach growl?

[UsernameTaken 283]

I am revising from band to bypass on 13th...

Sitting here hungry on a liquid diet and wondering, after bypass does your stomach still growl when you are hungry? This maybe a stupid question... But just wondering...

With my band I would eat, the food would be in my pouch but the bottom half of stomach is screaming "feeed meeee now!"

Sometimes. Maybe more just general noises than growling. Sometimes it alerts me that I haven't had enough to drink and drinking will quelch it. Sometimes it is acid reflux so be sure to take a PPI if it is prescribed.

No never. When you have your surgery you will have a lot of noises coming from inside but it won't be growling. The noises I hear now are in my intestines either liquid or solids; I guess because stomach contents gets there so fast now.

I'm still new (only 1 1/2 month out) and I have YET to feel an iota of hunger sensations! It blows my mind every day! My stomach makes crazy noises sometimes (likely gas) but it's not growling.

I'm 11 months out now and my new plumbing does make noise but it's settled down a lot in the last 6 months or so. It will make noise occasionally now but typically it's when I need more liquid/water.
