Does anyone know when the pain stops drinking liquids, i get most pain from drinking Water and i dont even drink that fast. I am always dehydrated too :/ I am trying electrolytes to put in my drink bottle it helps but have any of you had this issue?

I am 4 weeks out.

What kid of pain Tyson?? Like as it is going down or just uncomfortable after drinking?

Discomfort mainly, it does go down tho

try taking smaller sips...focus on getting the liquid in. In the beginning that's all I did. I would spend an hour to an hour and a half to drink one protein drink....I only walked until I got the drink in before doing something else. It's easy to forget to drink.

How long has it been since your surgery? Are you taking really small sips? - I was specifically told that I will need to drink very slowly and with tiny sips at first. We're told to measure out an ounce and slowly sip that - that's how small.

Girl you need some glasses Tyson is a boy

(And a cute one I might add)

I had the same issue. It was like my sleeve took forever to heal. Around 5-6 weeks it got so much easier. Hang in there.

And if you are dehydrated, go get a bag of fluids. You will feel better instantly.

Yeah, I know, I was blind, and I saw it after I posted. It wasn't enough of a faux pas for me to go back and edit

Are you trying to put too many ounces in your pouch? Its about the size of a sharpie so if is going in ok but then hurting, maybe ur just too full. Also, there was a good post awhile back about Water tension and how it just goes down and then sits differently. Maybe half propel half water or half g2 cut with water. For me, propel just feels " soft.". No better way to describe it.. Easy to drink for me. Good luck... You may just need to give it some time.

I know this sounds weird but a lot of people say Water is just uncomfortable to drink right away..

Some cut it with a little sugar free juice so it not so "heavy" I put mio drops on mine it just goes down easier that way... But I will say it does get easier to drink after a couple of months.. But until then it's kinda like a full time job sip sipping all day!

Ha good answer moregoodtimes!
