Question 6

is it normal when your stomach growl, even if your not hungry? is there any treatment to it?

Accepted Answer

Growling can be OK: Hi Deborah,  By growling I assume you mean your stomach makes bubbling, gurgling sounds?  Are these painful or have your eating habits changed?  Any vomiting or diarrhea?  If not, and its only 'growling' then it may not be a matter to worry about.  Your intestines are supposed to be doing their job of digesting.  But if you have any of the above symptoms then see your doctor.

Accepted Answer

Impossible to say...: Given the very limited information you've provided, it's impossible to speculate as to cause. You have not told us the acuity, severity, extent, circumstances, accompaniments, or exact location of your pain, nor what tests have been accomplished and what was ruled out. Please return to your physician(s) and proceed with further evaluation so a fix for your symptom(s) can be identified.

Question 8

Accepted Answer

Gastritis?: Your symptoms and their improvement with food suggest inflammation in your stomach or possibly a peptic ulcer.  You need to see a doctor.  Meanwhile, see if your symptoms improve with use of an antacid like Maalox or an acid suppressor like OTC Zantac (ranitidine).

Question 9

am always feeling hungry even after a meal 30 minutes later my stomach growls why? trying to go on a diet keep getting embarrassed with stomach growling

Accepted Answer

Dysmotility ?: Consider gastroparesis=a slow-emptying stomach that is most symptomatic after the stomach fills from meals. Maybe its functional due to brainstem reflexes induced by eating--often exaggerated in ibs resulting in altered perception of gut distension, "growling", ; modified transit of food. Consider tachygastria, or gastric outlet delay reflecting inflammation, scarring, biliary disease, more.
