I definitely will try the warmer Water. I only used my faucet water on cold. I do the small sips but it kind of feels like air is being trapped in my body as well and I get these really painful hiccups.
Thank you.

I am 5 days post op of my RNY and I am not at all able to even drink Water without it being incredibly painful. Tomorrow I set up an appointment with my surgeon and nurse to follow their advice. As of right now they're going to give me fluids tomorrow. I just don't understand why it's like this? Any insight?

Surgery is harder on some of us than others. It may just take you a bit longer to get past the pain.
I would make sure I am doing small sips, room temperature or perhaps slightly warmer Water. Cold or hot could cause a shock to your fresh surgery and cause pain in a variety of ways. Experiment a bit with temperatures, see if it gets you anywhere.
Your Doc will get you through it.
