  1. Hi everyone, I'm brand new here and hoping someone may have experienced what I'm going through. I had VSG on 9/18 as well as a hernia removal. I had no issues recovering, no sickness, no vomiting, was up and walking within 8 hours of coming out of surgery, haven't needed pain meds after leaving the hospital. The problem I'm having is I can't drink anything without severe pain. Water causes the most pain. I am on a liquid diet until 9/27 though my surgeon told me if I was feeling hungry this week I could start soft foods.Friday and Saturday I suffered through drinking and was terribly uncomfortable. Today I experimented and did a liquid lunch and had some soft foods for dinner (potato and cottage cheese). I felt terrible all afternoon, after eating dinner (soft foods) I felt no pain. It seems so strange to me that water would hurt so bad but I've tried several different things (broths, Protein shakes, warm tea, cream Soups etc - they all hurt). Anyone experience this? Any advice? I'm going to call my surgeon in the morning but would love to know if I'm just super weird or if others have gone through this.
