Cold Drinks/Food

[kalfin13 4]

I've read several people say how cold foods and drinks really don't set well with them or cause stomach spasms. I am just curious if this is something that has continued to be the case for you or is it something that went away after a couple months?

I am 8 months out and I still have a problem with cold liquids they make me ill this includes shakes, puddings, yogaurt, frosty's, etc and it doesn't take much for me to feel the effects.

I can drink Protein shakes room temperature and that's how I also always have had my Water. I don't know if it's stomach spasms but this group of liquidy solids causes problems for me and often cause sliming even in the smallest amounts.

Granted some of these i'm not supposed to be having but I have tried to indulge and then learned my lesson, hope this helps.

I haven't noticed that at all. I don't gulp down cold drinks in huge quantities, but sipping on a smoothie or having ice cream doesn't seem to bother me.

I am 5 1/2 weeks out and I have not had that problem.

From the begining I've always toleraded ice cold smoothies and any drinks in generAL. I don't gulp them dow even 8 months out. Strange how our bodies/ stomachs all behave differently after surgery, isn't it?

I can drink anything in any temperature, and though the thickness/foaminess of a Protein Shake is not something I enjoy, I can even drink that without difficulty.

This is so good to hear! There's nothing I like better than an icy cold drink. Hopefully I will be able to tolerate them afterwards.

I was the opposite. Warm drinks made me feel like I was going to throw up. Also, I noticed when I had indigestion ice cold beverages helped me belch. Don't know why, but they did. Maybe the spasms pushed the gas up.

I'm about 6 weeks out now and can just barely tolerate cool items. I try to avoid ice like it's the plague. Cold causes me pain/nausea.

In the early weeks after surgery, warm/hot drinks were better. I still drink hot coffee first thing in the morning as it seems like it helps my stomach relax (probably all in my mind...). But after that first cup of coffee, I am fine. I prefer ice in my Water and my drinks and I don't have any problem with it at all.

Only thing that bothers me about cold drinks is that I feel it going down my esophagus and into my stomach. Its a weird sensation for me. But no pain or other aversion to the cold.
