I wana no if its ok to drink with a straw??

I was never told not to and I always drink with a straw. I think the premise is that you get too much air in your band with a straw. To me (don't quote me cuz I got a C in college physics!) drinking with a straw tends to diminish air. Thats why people get drunk faster drinking with a straw ( a fact).

Anyway, I've never been told not to. It's no where in my band manual either. Maybe you want to ask your nurse?
