      Cold drinks worsens my gas pain but helps my dry mouth. Hot drinks helps me pass gas.

    I drank ice water right away. Slowly, but I drank it.

    Couldn't have it a week after surgery because it would make my stomach constrict and feel painful, but now I can drink it all the time. A month out.

    Water is always ice cold when I fill my bottle. Hasn't bothered me drinking it. The bottle is 32oz so of course sitting out for a while it gets to room temp. Either way is fine with my stomach.

    I am 6 months out and I still have problems with ice water. Water is all I drink (no coffee or tea) and unless I add a little Crystal Light to my water it feels like lead once it reaches my stomach.
