James Marusek 5,244 Posted December 29, 2016 I am sorry to hear you are having problems. Be willing to experiment. After surgery, my taste buds changed dramatically. Even Water changed. In the hospital it tasted excessively chlorinated and I could not drink it. So I experimented. sugar free popsicles became my best friend. Some individuals find hot or cold can help with fluids. For me, I found that I could tolerate flavored water. So I began using Crystal Light. I also found a new drink Bai which I liked cold. In the winter, I found that I tolerate Hot drinks such as piping hot cocoa. But you have to use the "No Sugar Added" variety. Also fine English teas were very good.

Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N920A using the BariatricPal App I was having rapid heart rate changing positions, dizziness, all mucous membranes were dry, only urinating 1 x per day......I stuck it out for 5 days with these symptoms. I had to 2500ml of fluids. Don't wait if you think you are dehydrated also go get treatment. Sent from my SM-G935V using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
