Abdominal noise

[Williamgk]

Abdominal noise daily. More so when laying down. No pain but very rare I have a bloating feeling in my stomach. Poop is not long pieces anymore, comes out in smaller chunks for years now. This noise started maybe 1 year or so ago. I started taking a variety of supplements that help in digestive health and functionality, also a multi vitamin and a probiotic. Which seemed to help a little, I sure do feel healthier since starting the regiment. Only causes I can think of is daily suboxone use (6 years) from a prior Percocet dependency due to a femur break. I suspect that is the cause. I believe it’s known to back you up. I started to wean myself down 6 months or so ago. Will take 2 years I suspect to be completely done. I thought it was lactose intolerance but I do not think that is the case. As I have tested myself by eating huge milkshakes with no adverse effects. It very well be good or allergy related as some days I have no noise. I recently had blood work done (none related) and I am super healthy so my doctor says. I do not know what was exactly tested for as it was a required physical for a dental surgery I had. I do not have health insurance, i would greatly appreciate any advice I can get. Thank you very much !

Sorry if this is a second post.  Or sure how any of this works. Came to this from a email.

Have you ever talked to your doctor about this?

Though this isn't from a medical site, it's a good article - https://www.foxnews.com/health/a-noisy-stomach-normal-or-unhealthy

If you are having bowel movements, it's not likely that you're blocked. Since it's your only symptom, the sounds are probably normal, but it's definitely worth getting a doctor to check it out to know for sure.

Yes I would say this is my only symptom. Sometimes it’s a hard stool but not often. I find it strange there isn’t any pain involved, I guess that’s a good thing because it may show it’s not something actually wrong with me. I don’t drink, I don’t smoke. The noise makes it hard to fall asleep. Iv read that blockages can lead to serious issues. Why I wanted to ask a few people. Thank you for the response and help by the way

Hello and welcome to the forum.  Sorry you are having abdominal noises. But this is your only symptom?  Or are you also having constipation?
