misstiffsue 62 Posted October 25, 2012 Just in the last few days I have found that plain Water makes me feel sick. I am 4 weeks out and up until this point I haven't had this problem. Has anyone else experienced this? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ready4success 380 Posted October 25, 2012 I'm 2 months out, and I still can't drink a lot of plain Water, without feeling nauseous, especially early in the morning. What's weird is that I don't have any problems drinking CL or Powerade Zero during my early workouts. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sarsar 824 Posted October 25, 2012 Plain Water made me sick until 8 or 9 months out. After that I could drink it again and now it's totally normal and I drink a lot of it. This was really hard for me bc before surgery I drank a lot of water and I loved it, I was worried that I would never be able to drink it plain again. Thankfully that was not the case for me and I love water again! 1 kmwheel reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BlueOctoberGirl 111 Posted October 25, 2012 I am almost 2 years out. I still have some days that any cold drinks do not sit well with me. On those days i stick to room temp Water, coffee and tea. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Terry H. 196 Posted October 25, 2012 It appears this is a pH problem. Adding CL or other additives seems to change the pH enough that it doesn't have the same effect. Very common to have trouble with plain Water.< /p> 1 kmwheel reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NORCALRN 60 Posted October 25, 2012 i am only now able to drink Water but it has to be "just right"..... i drink Vitamin water zero - sometimes mixed up or watered down. i was sleeved 7-24-12 (major complications). temperature matters, too. keep trying ----it will suddenly be ok. its a waiting game. just stay hydrated. 1 kmwheel reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LindaS 316 Posted October 25, 2012 I didn't like plain Water right after surgery. I really liked the Sobe Zero drinks or Propel Zero. I'm more than a year out now, and I can once again drink plain Water. It took several months though. I agree with an earlier poster -- try drinking it at various temperatures. It may be the temp that is impacting you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BKMama 179 Posted October 25, 2012 Unless it is ice ice ice cold it makes me nauseous too, especially having to sip it. Room temperature Water literally makes me gag. So weird. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
