Question:
RYN Surgery 8/11/09- having pain when drinking...

Water! I can drink protein drinks with no problems but water or any other clear liquids hurts. Anyone else have this?    — kaylazoe (posted on September 4, 2009)

Are you putting ice in the water.... I know that when I was first home and I drank ice in my drinks (I was drinking gatorade g2) it felt wierd.... not a harsh or stabbing pain, but a very odd pain where i felt it go all the way down... (I continued to drink it like that and got used to it... I can't stand anything at room temp or without lots of ice)...... Good Luck.

Sip tiny tiny sips, you are still healing. If it doesn't get better get to the doctor!

i know exactly what you are feeling. i am 6 weeks out today and when i drink milk or coffee or sometimes other things it does not hurt but water will hurt when it hits the pouch.i was thinking because it was such a thin liquid and maybe it was a bit too cold.my friend is 14 months out and she sais she did the same thingbut it did stop and doesn't hurt anymore.of course it will hurt if you try to get too big of a sip but i am not doing that at all.best wishes
