A member asked:
I've been getting really weird stomach gurgling for the past few weeks, not hungry grumbling but like bubbling, and it gets really loud.

Air makes noise: Everyone swallows a bit of air when they eat or drink. This adds to the "stomach bubble" which is quite visible on x-ray. When your stomach processes a meal it squeezes/mixes the contents which will make a gurgling sound. It is hard to separate that noise from the noise of bowel gas in the large intestine as it passes through the upper colon, next to the stomach. Gas-x might help, or burp it out.
