A newbie question!
My mom is 9 years out from her RNY and I can hear her gurgles from across the room on a daily basis. That's one of the reasons I didn't want the RNY. Lucky for me, I do not have this issue. The first few days I did, but I realized it was from eating Sorbitol. Once I quit sorbitol, my tummy was feeling great. No more gurgles.

The noise isn't actually from the remnant stomach, it is from the intestines. It often gets better (not as much and/or not as loud), but most people have it at least sometimes.
