drewmon 7 Posted August 11, 2012 Finally, after 6 weeks, I can drink Water again without discomfort. I was having to drink crystal light and propel exclusively. I was getting so sick of it. Now I just can't wait until I can chug water after a workout! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

drewmon 7 Posted August 11, 2012 Yeah, it would make my stomach really uncomfortable. It was a weird pain and almost like nausea. Kinda hard to explain but really unpleasant. Fortunately I've been at able to drink about 30 oz so far today without any discomfort. 1 Delta..Make it Happen reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BrickHouse 358 Posted August 11, 2012 Why are there issues with drinking plain Water post op? I can't say for sure yet, but it seems people have trouble with cold water. I've read that some people drink warm water because of this. There could be many other reasons, though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
drewmon 7 Posted August 11, 2012 I tried all temperatures: cold, ice cold, warm, hot, room. They all made me feel equally gross. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
