diet/caff free soda
Just a short note abou****er...
Prior to the surgery, I LOVED water. Dranks at least 64 ounces of plain water a day. Chugged it, cuddled it, loved it.
Immediately after surgery, I had a hard time drinking it. It almost felt like it was getting "stuck". The odd thing was that crystal light, propel zero, vitamin water zero, milk, etc went down smoothly! I spoke to the nutritionist about it, and she said that she has researched this, and some people cannot tolerate the pH of water after surgery. She recommended that I add crystal light, or a bit of lemon, etc, to make the water go down better.
Even almost 6 months out I still have a hard time swallowing plain water. Plain water isn't the solution for everyone :(
