Drinks

[cheekybum]

Why is it that i can tolerate most food, but drinks do not go down at all well ? They didnt go down well yesterday they sit really heavy and today is the same, i have tried hot drinks, cold drinks squash water tea, nothing is going down easy. Any suggestions xx

Hmmmm, Ive not come across this before but seeing as liquids is so important to our health I would advise you speak to your team about it....It cant be good to struggle with fluids this way.....Hope you get it sorted soon (HUG) XX

I struggle with really cold drinks, the make my pouch kick, and if I have a hot meal followed by ice cream(only done that twice) my pouch kicks out, i'm fine with hot coffee and hot fruit tea,

Hi Julie, yeah i dont drink with meals and i sip all the while, as soon as they hit my pouch gurgle gurgle gurgle and it feels horrible, i am going to try and speak to a member of the team, see if they can put some light on the situation xx

Just spoken to dietician secretary, she is going to get them to ring me asap, and also tell consultant as apperently thats not a good sound, its a bit like water going down plug !! I am hoping i havent got a tear in my pouch. I feel fine though apart from this.

 

[dottychic]

I can drink hot drinks but water gives me tummy ache and pouch ache gurgle sound, but i know i should drink it going to ask doc tomor about it

 

[dottychic]

At least your team are taking it seriously....I hope it settles down before then and you dont have to go to A&E XX

The water down the plug-hole sound is normal, I sound like that all the time...in fact it can be really loud sometimes! But when you say they sit heavy, what do you mean? I'm assuming you're not trying to drink too much at once are you, becuase that makes me feel a bit strange if I gulp/drink too much in one go, until it works its way through. I always have a milky coffe in the morning, but I can still get weird sensations, gurglings, rumbling, whinings etc for hours afterwards!

Best of luck to you...

Thanks guys, even sipping all day, is making my pouch feel heavy and bloated, I think they are taking me seriously because drinks have never gone down very well right from the start, so I think they are just covering all angles really, I have gone back to a baby beaker to take it even slower, it's just annoying because food is ok xx

 

[dottychic]

Hope you are ok, it deffinately needs looking into....keep us informed XX
