I had an issue with cold Water. It was like my sleeve tenses up and limits the amount of water. However, I could drink a room temperature fine.

If nothing else cold or hot was giving you an issue, maybe it is more of a mindset thing. Are you a person that usually liked water? If not, you may have to put flavoring to the water.

I ate a lot of things at room temperature because too cold would not go down and too hot would hurt too.

Hot / warm Water is MUCH easier for me. A bottle of cold water takes me forever but tea is a breeze

Me too - for several weeks I had to put some hot into my glass of Water to make it a bit tepid. Cold water gave me quite a pain, even room temperature - but like you, it was fine in a Smoothie!

Thankfully, now that has passed...

Cold Water makes me sick. I want to vomit it back up once it goes down. It's the only thing I've had a real issue with so far.

Yes i had my surgery in sept and i still cant drink cold Water, it has to be warm with no trace of coldness at all. I let the hot water run and get it just before it gets hot, thats the only way i can keep it down

I talk to my doctor and she says it's the acidity in the Water and that I need to drink alkaline water so when I started to drink alkaline water I really can feel the difference

YES! I'm over a year out and I still have a little trouble with ice cold Water. It took me around 8 months to be able to stomach plain water - I used crystal light in room temp water, hot tea and Decaf coffee up until that point.

I still don’t like cold plain Water since surgery. Hot tea works though!

It's to do with the surface tension of the plain Water. Adding a little cordial should help. I still have trouble with water nausea 4 years post op.

      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!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
