Krestel 330 Posted June 9, 2019 I have no idea if it is even possible or if my mind has been playing tricks on me, but shortly after surgery, I swear I I could feel both my pouch and the remaining stomach. Even now Im sitting on my couch and my stomach part is gurgling a bit. Have any of you experienced the same thing? Is it even possible? //feeling like im halfway to being a (cute) cow! 1 Frustr8 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
summerset 5,265 Posted June 9, 2019 What I could feel after surgery for a little while was that the food was sitting in a really small, very specific part directly under the xiphoid process. After a few weeks this feeling returned to the feeling of the food being distributed in the upper part of the abdomen so the feeling of "full" changed back to where it was sitting before. That was a very interesting experience and one of the few things I can still remember about how it felt to be "post-MGB" early out. 1 Frustr8 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
catwoman7 11,220 Posted June 9, 2019 not me - I don't feel any different than I did before (well, other than I'm not obese anymore, of course - but my innards feel the same) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Frustr8 7,886 Posted June 9, 2019 I do still feel my pouch and yes you stated the location perfectly. I feel when Precious Pouch spasms, extreme pain before I regurgitate, and sometimes it is distended enough it feels like festering boil. But the remainder of my natural stomach? It doesn't make its presence known, almost like I was post-VSG and its gone FOREVER. But I have right subcostal pain almost on a continual basis.My Dr Noria states that is my ulcerated jejunem that I feel. 😪😣😪 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hrhays 3 Posted June 9, 2019 My stomachs still gurgles after a year and half. No sure what that means. It doesn’t bother me. It just gets noisy sometimes. 1 1badassbiggurl reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
