Oh yes my stomach is now very chatty!!! It grumbles and burbles away!!! Oh and because I eat too much air when eating I can now burp for Britain too!!!0

Typically it is just gas/acid. A ppi for the first 3 months or so post-op usually takes care of it. I was on nexium for about 3 months and never had a problem. There are OTC PPIs as well if you can't get the prescription.0

YES!!! Ohh it's so embarrassing lol...I am almost 6 months post op and mine still does it...I keep thinking it's because I put too much food in it or I am eating to fast...which I tend to do lol...It's awful sometimes and I get so embarrassed sitting next to people who I think can hear it...0

I'm almost 3 years out. Ive been on Protonix for years and still need it. Just in the last year my stomach makes noise and physically grumbles after Ive eaten. Ill have to see if it is gas related or not.0

WOW! thanks guys for all the responses...i had no clue it could be related to acid/gas. will have to talk to my doc about that...it just recently began doing it..0

I had it really bad right after surgery and then my stomach quieted down, but it has recently started up again and I'm almost 4 months out.0

I am 10 months out and it isn't as bad or often as it was but still does it. Most of the time it is when I am laying down. It used to be so loud it sounded like a plumbing problem in the house! I think it must get better with time. I have been on Nexium for years and have tried to stop since surgery but can't go for more than a day without it.0

I am over 10 months post op from sleeve and mine still does make noise. Not all the time but it does. I guess it is my sleeve talking to me. It can be from just drinking liquids and it will growl!0

Depending how far out you are it actually could be hunger. I have grumbles in my lower tummy area when my tummy is MAD. That generally happens when I eat something different or new or too fatty or too carbby, but if I stick to my regular diet and softer foods (even at 8 months out) I have no problems. However, I have a gurgle in my throat area lol. But I was told that was normal from my support group.0

Mine was bad at first but gradually got less noisy.0

5 months out, my tummy makes loud, funny noises when I drink warm fluids0

I'm 3 months out and occasionally my tummy rumbles. When I say rumbles the other day I thought I had shallowed a lion it was roaring so loudly! It's usually when I haven't eaten in a while and I eat something. Although my tummy didn't rumble much before I spoke to a friend who said her stomach rumbles all the time ....0

I'm 20 months out and mine does it most after I eat. I sure I am still eating too fast and swallowing air.0

Oh, good point! I'm finally not doing that as much.I'm 20 months out and mine does it most after I eat. I sure I am still eating too fast and swallowing air.0 -

I'm almost three years post op and my tummy STILL 'talks' to me!!! I'd say it is usually when I eat a little too much, not really over eat, but when I could have stopped a bite or two earlier!!! I am not sure it will EVER end. We laugh about it now!0
