I am 2 days post op, however when I drink anything my stomach automatically starts hurting and aching! Is that normal or should I be worried??

I had the exact same feeling up until week 4. Try to sip the drink and it helps. I couldn't tolerate cold drinks but room temperature is much easier for me. Experiment with Temps and sip slowly. You'll master it very quickly

@@TamaraRae - try different temperatures on the liquids - that may help. Are you running a fever? Taking a PPI?

You are ONLY 2 days post so it MAY be nothing but call your doctor TODAY and run it across the professionals before its the weekend and you cant get a reply.

I have been sipping and I found out that I can't do cold, that room temp is better but it still hurts. I'm a worry wart. I'm just afraid that because of it hurting that there is no way I'm going to be able to get liquids in, let alone my clear liquid Protein drinks!

Not running a fever and the only meds that I am on as directed by my doc is the liquid Lortab and pill for nausea/vomiting

@@TamaraRae - sip ALL DAY!

Getting dehydrated is an ER trip so sip, sip, sip! Move as much as possible too as it could be gas in your tummy.

You 'got this'

Thank you
