Devrom is excellent, I bought it online, it is for gas.

It's just part of the healing process. It doesn't last forever, but i'm almost a year out and once in a while can still hear things "moving" south from my stomach at times. I never let it bother me too much. If I was in a situation where I was pretty sure someone would hear it (and they didn't know about my surgery) I'd just say "wow, I should have eaten a little more I guess" (making them think it was my stomach growling from hunger). Bottom line is who cares what they think ? You are on your way to a better you ! Good luck ! Karen

At first I thought it was just the normal "just had surgery" noises. But I see you had surgery at least 4 years ago...possibly 6 years ago? It also appears you've had some problems since your surgery although it is unclear. I'm referring to your "digestive problems" reference. I don't know if you are under the care of a different surgeon but if you are I recommend you make an appointment to discuss this issue. If you aren't please see your general physican. The noises could be nothing but they also might be a hint to a developing problem...don't take any chances. Good luck!

I like you alien in the stomach reference. I feel the same way. My surgeon says this is excess gas (air) from a more difficult digestive process. If I know I am going to be around others I make a point to take Beano before eating and have Gas X on hand just in case. They work great.

Well, we all have the same alien. I had my surgery 4 years ago, did not have any health problems as a result but I still have the digestive noises. Devrom will help with gas odor but not the gas. Gas X may help. I just don't let it bother me anymore. It has become part of my fascinating personality!

I eat Greek yogurt to help with the noises and noxious gas my body produces. I use stevia to sweeten it and throw in some blue berries.probiotics is the answer

Welcome to my World. I had the same problem and what works for me is drinking lots of room temperature water and in the evening I have a cup of mint/spearmint tea plain no sugar or sugar substitute added. It helps and it does give me some relief. Devron is used as a body deodorant and it's NOT for gas or digestive helper.

My family and I use to call in "The Dinasaur," and we would laugh. It does go away. Mine slowed down around the one year mark and now I am almost 1 1/2 yrs out and I do not make any sounds....I miss it a bit (kidding).
