Gastric pain after drinking Pepsi



Recommended Posts

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.< /p>

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

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.

      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!

      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!!
