Water and Heartburn



Recommended Posts

I had RNY 2 1/2 years ago but recently regained 8 pounds. I hadn't lost in awhile before that. My own fault!! No excuses! I am back on track now but I am having a problem with Water. They removed a large Hiatal Hernia when I had my surgery and it's all good now except when I drink Water which hurts and gives me heartburn. Even coffee doesn't do this to me. Anyone else have this problem? And what is the problem??? It's very painful and I am downing Gavescon to deal with it!!

before surgery when I had acid reflux, yes, even Water could set it off. I thought I was the only one...

Water has always been the worst but I didn't realize it because I was so overweight! Hopefully someone has a trick or help for it! I have to get that Water into me!

Does the same thing happen when you drink flavored Water?

Still doing the daily acid reducers like Prevacid or Pepcid?

I'm sorry BTW!

Yes, any water!! I'm still on whatever they gave me for my stomach after surgery. Neither of those two though. I'm in Canada.

Oh wow. I'm sorry! I hope someone on here can help.

I would say go to see your doctor or surgeon.

P.s. I don't know anything about you but could you be pregnant? (Again I don't know if you are male or female, age, etc) My sisters in law always have terrible heartburn in the early stages of pregnancy.

lol Definitely not pregnant! I don't see my bariatric surgeon but I'll ask my regular doctor! Meanwhile, Gavescon helps a lot! Just crappy that I lost so much weight, had my Hernia fixed and Water does this!!

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
