If you need to go back and receive fluids intravenously you should. When I got home I had VERY good luck with hot tea. Anything hot, I even warmed up juice.< /p>

My first few days, I was not eating or drinking anything. My stomach hurt too much. I was probably taking in less than 10oz. a day. But it got easier towards the end of the week. It will get better. Hang in there.

I got dehydrated the first day I came home because I wasn't drinking enough and ended up in the ER receiving fluids intravenously. Seriously, if you can't drink enough, you need to go to the ER or an urgent care clinic.

absolutely get to the ER if you are not drinking.. I didnt have any issues.. seems like all I wanted to do was drink something.. my mouth was very dry..and it gets that way a lot during the day.. but I just keep sipping Water and making sure I stay hydrated.. it will get easier.. the first few days are hard.. getting used to everything.. hang in there.. good things to come.. :) good luck.

The first two days are the worst. Coming off anestisia was hard for me but leaps and bounds better day three forward. Warm liquids were helpful for me. Although cold is better for others so see what feels best for you. Very small sips at first! If you still can not take in anything I would go back to the hospital so they can administer an iv.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
