Is divided the same as transected?

I am 10 months out from a roux en Y and I suddenly feel gurgling on the right side. I used to be able to feel foods and esp. cold water going through my pouch on the left, now I feel it going across my upper middle all the way to the far left and I'm concerned this means I have a staple disruption. I still eat very small meals, but can't go the 4 hours between them that I used to. I looked at my operative report and it says "laparoscopic divided Roux-en-Y gastric bypass". I have a feeling if it were transected it would say transected, but I just had to ask. I am having panic attacks every time I feel that gurgling on the left!
