Issues with cold liquids?



Recommended Posts

I have been told that cold liquids can cause you to get what was described to me as a brain freeze headache in your stomach. Anyone have or not had those issues?

Have not. My Yeti goes with me everywhere with my ice Water inside. Shopping, work, out running errands. I’ve never had an issue.

I was just talking to my bariatric nurse today because I’m having problems getting Water down (I used to drink a minimum of 128oz a day!) and she said she still has problems with cold water or any cold beverages. She said she gets what feels like a spasm.. I’ve been drinking room temp water and still can’t. Popsicles es do fine tho 😉 she is 2 yrs out.

Plain cold Water for me is hit or miss. I favor teas and 0 calorie, 0 sugar drinks. Room temp water is where it's at for me. I can usually do just fine with that. But put ice in it and the game changes a bit. Tea is fine cold or hot, i don't know why. But it's a favorite for me. I am 16 months out and many things still give me pause but you take the good with the bad. You just gotta do a little trial and error.

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
