Carbonated Beverages Postop... The Final Answer

We are never going to agree, unanimously, on this subject. Whether its about it being safe/okay to drink postop or even on what to call it (Pop).

Sooooooo. See your WLS medical professional. ;-)

    This is SO funny. I went to pre op classes yesterday, and we discussed all these issues. I heard myself saying "I've read..." several times when the nurses were talking about this or that. Items of "contention" included: straws, medical ID bracelets, NSAIDS, pop, chunky cream of ____ soup, strained cream of ____ soup, how long to wait between medications, catheters, etc, etc, etc. :D
