Liquids especially Water hurt me. Food goes down easy.

Plain Water kills me.. It sucks.. I can only mix crystal light anything else like mio makes me dump.

At first I had to take baby sips, and I cannot drink just plain water = yuck so I add crystal light or something to my water to flavor it as long as it is no calories or surgar. I am 7 months post op and can take bigger gulps now. If I go too big of a gulp my pouch does tell me that that was too big - lol. All the gurgling and noises go away after a while... at least mine did.

I had the problem with water too. The thing I found that helped was ice chips or slushies (sugar free of course) I bought them from 7-11 and from a local small place that sold sugar free ones. Also if I froze my water bottles and drank the water very veyr cold I did not have the same reaction. Doctor said it had something to do with now being more sensitive the chemicals in the water (even bottled water) and so the taste of it changes when it is cold I guess. Anyway it did not last forever and now I can drink water cold or room temperature (but do still filter it as I notice the off taste more) and I can drink it in gulps and do not need to sip sip sip anymore. Thank goodness!! Sure makes geting in my liquids much much easier. Although lately my chocolate protein shakes make me queasy, but I still drink them every morning, can not afford to give those up. LOL
