Pain when having food

Hello,

I have complete my surgery on Wednesday, I am having some pain (like cramp) every time I drink something.... Sometime, I even have the cramp while laying in bed.

Plus, I am still feeling hungry but don't want to overdose the new stomach capacity so I tend to stop drinking even if i am not full... Is that ok??

Try drinking something a different temperature. I found my new tummy spasmed with cold liquids right after surgery, but was fine with warm things.

Stick to measuring everything and staying on a schedule. Here is a sample

For most true hunger doesn't return for a while. What you will have is head hunger and acid that mimics hunger. Even dehydration can cause hunger feelings.

I am 4 wks out with RnY. I have yet to feel hunger or fullness. Have not had any issues with vomiting or nausea. I still measure my soft foods , but drink as much as I can--Much more than the 1 oz at a time for the first 10 days post-op--just not gulping it down. Have no issues with either temp extreme with liquids. Maybe I'm incredibly lucky...?

How about hunger? Am not able to know when I am getting full and in don't to risk drinking a lot...

Take small sips. Fluids go right thru your system so it's unlikely to feel full. I don't think there's any concern about drinking too much (unless it's a high calorie drink).

I have pain in my upper chest when I drink Water. I am 6 days out. I have to make sure and drink water standing up. I'm ok with broth and Jello. I think it's just our stomach has changed and so has everything else.

I have same exact thing as you. Did you also do a hiatal hernia repair? I did and I think that is what's causing my chest to feel like that when I take something down.
