Strange feeling from fluids

Hey guys,

I was sleeved on the 7th of April, and I'm at home now and the pain is subsiding with each passing day.

I'm a little worries though... I'm still on fluids for another week but at the moment whenever I drink something, even the smallest sip, I feel it get stuck in my tummy and it feels really uncomfortable; it passes after a few seconds when my stomach kind of... Groans (actual groaning sound) and the liquid passes through.

Anyone else have this problem?

(I've noticed if I take a large gulp of Water I get the same feeling, but even the smallest sip will trigger it)

Thanks,

I had this problem with cold fluids or if I drink to much at one time.

I've been having the SAME problem. Plain Water is the worst, my unscientific guess is it has something to do with the water tension.

When I went for my barium swallow, it was clear my stomach was refluxing and only allowing the tiniest amount through. Have you tried different temperatures? Warm chicken broth goes down the easiest. Also, are you on any type of anti-acif medicine, like priolsec or something? That may help as well.

I go in for my surgery follow up on Wednesday and I'm for sure going to ask about this.
