Hello Everyone,

I'm a newbie. I was sleeved on 4/6. Surgery went well, was released from hospital on 4/7. Drinking not so good. Why is it that everytime I take one little sip of my 1oz cup of water that the water seems to sink to the bottom of my LIL' STOMACH and my LIL' STOMACH starts to churn and twist and tighten? Today I am suppose to start protien shakes, but with the reaction of LIL' STOMACH to water I'm scared! Will this ever STOP? When?

Thank you, desperately seeking a solution...

When you are sleeved some people stomach's spasm when they drink water.. Call your doctor and ask if he will call you some Hyoscyamine in. It helps with stomach spasms.. You will feel better just take them for a couple of days. Just be patient it will go away with time. The hyoscyamine really helps though. good luck double

I was sleeved on 4/4 and had the same problem with Water for the first few days. I was able to tolerate water with crystal light and clear Protein water drinks however. I heard water with lemon can also be more easily tolerated.

Speaking of water. I am here at work and 30 min ago I just took 3 big gulps of water from my water bottle. I forgot I was sleeved last week. Fortunately my stomach didn't go too crazy!!

I also read to try different temperature of liquids. Cold might cause spasms but room temp or warm might not.

I was sleeved April 4th also and going through the exact same thing. the stomach churning.

Cant wait till it stops!
