Zoes.Realm 190 Posted May 7, 2016 So I am almost 8 wks post surgery, and I can not figure out what is the deal with the noises that come from my belly. They are the worst while eating or drinking thing. Most of the time it sounds like hungry pain like before my surgery but when I hear them, I am generally just eaten and very content with my food consumption. Does anyone know what these noises are? Will I always have these? Any way to make them go away? Thanks everyone. Sent from my SM-G925P using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Daisee68 2,493 Posted May 7, 2016 Mine was awful at about 2 to 3 months. It actually scared me because the noises changed. More than one time, it made such noise it woke me out of a dead sleep!! It actually turned out that I had a stricture and I wonder if part of the noises I heard were related to that. At 11 months post-op, I still have noises sometimes but not near as bad. Sometimes, it means I am thirsty and Fluid will quiet it. Today (and honestly more than once) I found myself talking outloud to my stomach saying "OK! OK! I am going to get some water! Give me a minute!" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KindaFamiliar 3,867 Posted May 7, 2016 14 months out and I still get them... Sometimes loud enough for the person I'm talking to on the phone to enquire about the rutting wildebeest that seems to be in the room with me... Good times, good times... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dashofsunshine 875 Posted May 7, 2016 I'm 18 months out, my sister in law is 6 years out - the noises never go away. Embrace it and learn to live with it, lol. It's pretty normal. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
