Just wanted to see if anyone is experiencing the same thing? I’m two weeks post op from bypass. I haven’t had any problems or nausea until recently. I’ve been able to tolerate everything that I’ve tried, but for some reason the past two days anytime I drink Water it makes me nauseous. It doesn’t last long but it doesn’t feel good. I love water and I know it’s important but why would it make me feel this way? Anyone have similar experiences?

Before my gastric bypass surgery, I loved to drink a nice cold glass of ice Water. But immediately after surgery, my taste buds changed. Water tasted so chlorinated, like swimming pool water, that I couldn't drink it.

I found that flavored water such as Crystal Light, took away the bad taste.

"Water nausea" - yes, I have experienced it. I realized when I first got home that Water alone wasn't going to work for now and drank cran-water instead. As my stomach settled following surgery,I added plain water back in. The nausea initially was very brief. Real nausea set in on week 3. I went back to cran-water for a week then back to water.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
