I am 12 days post op and really haven't had any problems with liquids. As of yesterday everything I eat or drink hurts.

My 2 week check up is Tuesday. I hope I can hang on until then. Anybody else have this problem?

Omg! I feel you. One day I'm doing great and the next everything hurts. I felt great coming off the surgery and the day I got home, I couldn't drink anything. I don't know if it's the process of healing or our bodies going through the stress of the surgery, but some days I feel like a yo-yo.

Oh and on Friday the 22nd, I'll be a month out.

My one month is this up coming week. Restriction really varies for me day to day.

I read that the swelling in your stomach can got up and down for up to 6 months. I wouldn't be surprised if that was the cause.

Hope it gets better soon!

Same thing- sooo frustrating! I just start to feel kind of normal and then- WHAM! I'm exhausted or it hurts to eat and drink or I just feel lousy. I heard the same thing as sapMegan, this can go on for up to six months. Ugh!

Arg... I'm 4 weeks out tomorrow and same thing... also I'm having trouble staying hydrated. Very frustrating!

At 4 weeks, I started having this roaming stomache that's just shy of nausea. Been going on for a week. Worst is when I drink water, but I can eat fine and drink protein. Glad to hear that others have similar strange phenomena (not glad you hurt, but it helps me feel a little more normal). Only thing that's really helped is very small doses of nausea med. lets all hang in there--it's only temporary.
