Off to the ref. for some very cold sippers. Let you know the results. Thanks.

Thanks everyone! I've been sipping about 5 ml.at a time, but not waiting for the results. The cold liquid sounds really good to my bruised diaphram. One of the lobes of my lungs had a hard time reinflating after surgery, so my diaphram took the hit. I have been sipping/walking, soaking in hot baths (great way to relax the chest) and just giving up on intaking fuilds, which can't be good. What I wouldn't give for some Cream of Wheat now!

I am 2 days out of banding and I am PBing everything including water and I am sipping very slowly. Spoke to the drs office and they said not to worry? Is my GI track just being overly sensitive?
