It's not terrible, but I failed. The doc said there was just a trickle going through and he couldn't be sure everything was good. My surgeon, though, said thatsince I was downing my liquids and shakes that I was good to go. Happily, he was right!

It ain't an orange whip, so don't expect anything you'll order a second round of.

Is it a thick or think liquid post op? The pre op test nearly had me gagging

I had 2 liquids. The first was slightly thicker than Water and bitter as hell. The otger was chalky and thick like a bad shake.

I didn't have a pre op test where I had to drink anything.

This is just to make sure everything is working correctly.

But I haven't had anything to drink since Wednesday midnight and until after this test I can't have anything.

I didn't have one. My surgeon doesn't do them because he's never had a leak and figures it isn't worth putting people through that unless there is a reason to. That made me nervous at first but after hearing about it, I'm glad. I'm sure it'll be fine though. Just another small step in the process. [emoji3]

Just had it on Tuesday. It was an awful, bitter drink and you have to drink about an ounce of it. Horrible! They gave me some Water to swish in my mouth after they took the pictures. Just really really bad. But I was able to start drinking after, so it was worth it!

The pre-op was terrible. They gave me something that made my stomach larger and omg ridiculous cramps and discomfort. They gave me some fizzy drink, ew. And one chalky one. That was terrible. You swallowed and it was still all around your mouth. Post op, was only 2 I think.
