I was talking to my cousin ... And telling her how after I had surgery that now food gets stuck in my chest... But I can't explain why, since it was my stomach that was cut... And stuff got stuck, because I didn't purée it good enough... Any explanations? Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I had RNY 8/22, I am so thirsty but it feels like I'm gulping air and hurts when the liquid riches my stomach... Even when taking small sips! I have found that it especially hurts when I try to drink after just waking up.. And when I drink anything less than hot tea or Water... I'm am just very thirsty all the time and Popsicles are too sugary (artificial sugar)and do not quench my thirst. Any ideas?Please p.s my Vitamins also make me extremely nauseous and the liquid crap (especially liquid dulcolax) makes me gag Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

My NUT said its ok for now to help me get my liquids in because I have been taking in more air trying to drink from the cup... So I can do it for now... Because I'm only getting in like 32 ounces on a GOOD day Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I now use a straw, but I feel a cramping pain when it gets down to my stomach... And it's regardless of big or small sips and I am so thirsty that I can't quench my thirst with tiny hamster sips Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Thank you both! I will continue with my tea, I'm glad that this is something that will pass... I will increase my hot teas and keep trying the room temp Water. Again thank you! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
