Christina.Rose 287 Posted March 21, 2017 Ok, all I have had is liquids like Water, broth, cream Soup (strained) etc. I was sleeved March 17th. No major issues as far as I can tell but when I swallow liquids it hurts my stomach. Mostly when its ice cold but a little with all temperatures. I have read that lots of people feel this but what I would like to know is when it stops? Does it even out? Its not an acid feeling but like a sharp stab. Thank you in advance.

Yes it does get better I noticed it eased off around the 2/3 week mark and drinking room temp Water was better for me as cold water made my stomach spasm and hurt at the time I remember thinking how will I ever drink anything again in life it does get better 1 Christina.Rose reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Christina.Rose 287 Posted March 21, 2017 Thanks! It feels so weird but it's comforting to know others have gone through it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GrrlAnn 177 Posted March 21, 2017 I am 8 weeks out and although I never had pain I still feel my stomach so much more than preop. However, even that has lessened in the weeks after surgery. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pam_2-06-2017 375 Posted March 21, 2017 Yes! I could not drink anything cold for about 2 weeks. Kept my Premier Protein shakes on the counter. I may have been able to tolerate cold sooner but I wasn't taking any chances. Forgot my Water one day on a drive to town and sipped my son's cold drink and it went down easy.Lots of these issues resolve themselves. Good luck Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
