First day on full liquids

I have gas pain and gurgling whenever I take a sip. Sometimes I burp afterward. Water seems to go down fine. Protein shakes or milk are not ok. Will this get better? Maybe I'm going too fast. One small sip every few minutes.

try smaller sips (as in barely anything), more slowly. the shakes are thicker than plain water. Chances are you still have a lot of swelling. I think for me it was around day 5 post op that I turned a corner and getting liquids in was much much easier.

Initially the guidline from my practice was 1oz every 15 minutes and gradually work my way up as that got easier. that first week it would literally take me sipping all day from 6am until midnight to get all my fluids in. Don't worry though, this phase is short in the grand scheme of things. Just have to work your way through it.

Thanks Heidi. I will try it!

I was sleeved last week and the gurgling is such a weird feeling right? It's much minimized pretty quickly.
