Stephanie 49 Posted November 18, 2012 I had crystal light today for the first time since my surgery. I had the raspberry lemonade flavor. I had maybe 1/4 the bottle and then I started to get really hot and my stomach started to bother me and I had to run to the bathroom. What happened? Was sugar free. My surgery was nov 2nd 2012.

Amandabythepound 32 Posted November 18, 2012 I had rny on nov 5 th, crystal light and any other kind of tea seem to get my intestines going, having had a slow bowel anyway, they've really helped me stay regular, not sure if this helps at all, but I've shared the experience xoxo Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jodimc 117 Posted November 18, 2012 I'm preop, but I have IBS and artificial sweetener does this to me. So much so that I can not do chewable vitamins.< /p> Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

k.buys 9 Posted November 18, 2012 I haven't been able to handle Crystal light either. The only thing I found that I can drink and like is sugar free Hawaiian Punch singles to Go. The fruit Juicy Red Flavor. I got some Grape flavor and for some reason that made my stomach upset. I think with the Crstal light for me it's the citrus in it.

Stephanie 49 Posted November 18, 2012 My mom said that it may be the citrus in it. I used to love crystal light raspberry lemonade. I hope I will again some day. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jnygrl 28 Posted November 18, 2012 My mom said that it may be the citrus in it. I used to love crystal light raspberry lemonade. I hope I will again some day. I used to love crystal light as well but have found since surgery it is just too sweet for me. My NUT said tastes would change after surgery.. Bummer though. I have about 6 boxes of the packets!
