Hi guys! One of my favorite things ever is hot sauce I don't know if I'm allowed to have it yet I'm about 3 months post op. Just wondering what everyone's experience with spicy food was especially hot sauce! And when you started having it? Thanks!

I don't think I had any restrictions on hot sauce. At 3 months out I think you would be safe in trying a little to see how it goes.

I had no resttriction on hot sauce. Try a little first and see how it sits with you

Great thanks guys!

I didn't have any restrictions with hot sauce, and started putting some on my cottage cheese about 2 weeks post op. Along with salt and pepper, yum! I never had an issue with it.

I added hot sauce to my refried beans at two weeks post op. No problems. I was not given any restriction on it. My NUT just told me to go easy at first to see if I had reflux or heartburn issues or any other problems.

I think I was somewhere around the 9 week mark.

I began grilling again had some wings on the grill. I used a good hearty rub on them and sauced them three different ways for everyone. One of them was a no carb buffalo style sauce. After I had two of those and the sauce didn't cause any issues..............it was game on from that point forward.

FTR, my favorite Breakfast is a fried egg over easy with Tobasco sauce and ground pepper all over it. Yeah, buddy. Good stuff.

My surgeon said not to the first 4 weeks. Now I'm good.

I started using hot sauces at about two weeks post surgery.

Follow your post op plan and introduce them slowly to see how you respond to them. Enjoy.
