Yeah, it's funny - because I'm a nursing student (alllllmost a nurse .... I graduate in May, thank God), I have my own stethoscope and am quite accustomed to listening to bowel sounds, as we have to do it on every physical assessment we perform. And I swear, I have never heard bowel sounds as hyperactive as mine are on ANYONE in the hospital - most of the people i listen to are actually hypoactive, if anything other than normal.
Mine are insane today too, and I'm still constipated - I think I ate too much for lunch today though, so I feel yucky, and that could be part of the grumbly tummy. Going out to eat is never a good thing for me...
