It was alka seltzer or something. I just had to do one a couple weeks ago - after a couple hours, I felt fine, but it was very uncomfortable with a little tummy.

 Oh my goodness I think the Upper GI series is the thing I'm dreading most post-op!!! I can't imagine what it's like with a teeny little sleeve tummy. When I had it about 6 years ago (checking for stomach problems), I felt like a Coca-Cola bottle filled with Pop Rocks and shaken on max speed for a good day, day and a half after the procedure. I was sooooooo miserable. Hopefully that feeling goes away for you soon! I do remember drinking milk did NOT help at all, for whatever reason. I had thought it would...but it was way worse.

Coca-cola filled with pop rocks is exactly how it felt, nasty..... bloat ...
yeah, now that you mentioned it, that on a newly sleeved tummy sounds brutal....ugh
