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.

Mine sounded like a dinosaur fight for about three months and then it slacked off.

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!" :D

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...

19 months out and I STILL hear the noise. usually only while eating certain foods, but I haven't paid close enough attention to figure out which ones cause it.

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.

I'm nearly 21 months post-op, and my stomach still gurgles sometimes.

But I don't think those on the other end of my phone calls can hear it! ;)

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
