When I sip any liquid my stomach gets super tight and feels like there are tiny knives stabbing me. Eventually ill burp and it will stop hurting. Im 3 days post op. Just wanted to kniw if this is normal. Im taking tiny sips ans waiting 15 minutes b4 i sip again.

It sounds normal to me, but check with your surgeon's office to be sure. I found that I had to find what temperature water my new stomach was able to tolerate. I couldn't take any cold and too hot didn't work either. The best for me was room temperature. Was able to get a lot more down early out drinking at room temp. Honestly, I grew so accustomed to the tepid water I don't like it icy cold any more.

For me it was a temp issue too. Not too cold, not too hot, it has to be juussttt right. Try that and check in with your doctor. Good luck!
