How gross is the leak test? Does it taste like pepto? Or worse? Honestly' date=' this is one of the things I'm nervous about now that my surgery is coming closer![/quote']

Not bad, and it's a very small amount!

Mine tasted like a lemony oil nasty something that I cannot even describe. I had it the morning after my surgery and that is where they took my NG tube out! I know some people do not get those but my doctor uses them to prevent vomiting and dry heaving after surgery. But I did start gagging and spitting up that leak test drink!

The blue dye test was pretty foul. The barium swallow wasn't pleasant in comparison.

Did it make anyone throw up? I have a phobia of throwing up lol

I threw up as soon I awoke in recovery. Anesthesia does that to me.

It was about as fun as throwing up can be... Not at all!

What's a NG tube?
