Gurgling...I was so embarrassed



Recommended Posts

Hi everyone, I am so happy for this forum! I have had my band since April and have had four fills. I got my most recent fill a week ago and I feel a good amount of restriction this time. I was in a meeting today and when I drank my coffee, I could hear a gurgling sound. I tried to play it off and everyone was talking so no one heard anything. I took another sip and it happened again. It was like you could hear the liquid going down to the stomach. Has anyone experienced this? I have not told anyone at work that I have the band but if this keeps up, I may have to say something..LOL.

I have not been banded but I have thought about tummy noises. I have a friend that has had the gastric bypass and I have heard her tummy noises. I probably will play it off if not hey it is what it is....

Hey April

I was banded on July 31st and I know exactly what your talking about:sneaky:

It has happened to me recently but no one was around. For me I think i drank to fast. try taking small sips ( as if you are sipping on tea) when drinking

Dont tell anyone unless your comfortable. Your tummy could be making noises for a number of reasons...just look around like your wondering yourself whose tummy is singing :biggrin:

My stomach has been doing the gurgling sound and I have been bringing food back up as well if I don't chew properly and it's too big to go down. So I am going to get some Fluid removed at my next fill appointment on the 3rd of September.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
