Am I the only one whose stomach makes noises?
Sometimes it sounds like a witch's brew is being concocted down there! It can be embarassing! Am I the only one?

2. No, sometimes it's from having eaten and things being processed.

11. Actually, drink some water...
Sometimes all the sounds can be squelched by some simple water.

9. I've had it embarass me at dinner parties
...and just the other day in my therapy session.

But at least in therapy we can talk about why it embarasses me.

5. Nope....
When I eat this unique combo of food, my stomach will make a symphony of noises.

14. stomach, or the lower digestive works?
Google up "irritable bowel syndrome" and see if any of that stuff rings a bell for you.

The stomach is located much higher in the body than most people without any specific need to know anatomy realize, and often the stomach is blamed for misbehaviors of the small intestine and transverse colon.

16. yeah - definitely google up
"irritable bowel syndrome" and see if any of that stuff sounds familiar to you. And if it does, be very grateful that the condition now goes by the acronym "IBS" generally, as opposed to its earlier diagnostic classification as "spastic colon." ;-)
