HELP! I hurt when I drink,



Recommended Posts

I would say take the IV fluids! If your ins. is paying for DO IT!! You are probably already dehydrated and that plus the swelling is not good!

I was able to keep a liittle fluids down into my stomach this morning, I am hoping for a better day tomorrow.

Will it be possible to drink at least a 1/2 cup of a drink in a sitting little by little, what is the most that anyone can drink and how many weeks will I have to wait, I miss drinking a cold glass of Water....

My doctor had me on a sipping schedule after surgery. That gas they put in you makes you feel terrible. If you have the energy just walk too. That will help you to burp and get all that gas they put in you out. I hope you feel better. Just hang in there. One day at a time.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
