Gastric pain after drinking Pepsi

Hey guys, I did my Mini gastric bypass in 28th of may last year it's been a 1 year and 5 month free of junk food and carbonated drinks.

BUT last night i was craving for Pepsi so i drank a small can but now I'm having gastric pain in my lower stomach is it normal or should i tell my doctor???

I hate to tell him that cause he's a total meanie [emoji31]

What to do is there anyone had the same thing with carbonated drinks???

I had the sleeve gastrectomy in April of this year and if I have a small drink of anything carbonated, I feel nauseous until I let out a huge burp. I've actually had to get my hubby to pat me on the back like burping a baby.

I can drink carbonated, no issues (thankfully because I hate the taste of still water!)

My mate with a bypass can’t even have 50ml without pain, nausea. She is 4 years out.

Looks like you might be in her camp! But no great loss I reckon - nothing in soda or diet soda that is good for our journey!

I don’t drink carbonated beverages post-MGB. Almost 2 years post-op I don’t feel that great when I try to drink them. But it’s fine because I never had a soda habit before surgery so I’m not missing or craving them. They’re not healthy in general so I say good riddance.
