Hello, again, Everyone,

Here's a question:

Does anyone suffer from excessive stomach gurgling/grumbling? Over the past couple of weeks my stomach seems to be making more "music" than it usually does. It doesn't seem to be gas; however, sometimes I get a LOUD and long gurgle down my left side and I know I have about a 1/2 hour to get home and near a toilet. Frankly, this scares me because what if I can't get home before it hits??

Is this part of my IBS or do you think it's some other condition? I have an appointment with my doctor this Thursday afternoon and I'm going to ask him about it, but I wanted to see if anyone else has heard of anything like this?

Thanks for your help!

Donna :)

Hi Donna, what you've described could be IBS related. My tummy makes some pretty loud noises too and always seems to be loudest when I am out in public.


Let us know what your doctor suggests!

Thanks so much, Elise! I'm so glad to hear that I'm not alone!

I'll keep you posted on the doctor's advice.
