Re: O'douls and Mineral Water- To DANA

[Guest guest]

Dana,

Thats great news! Does that mean we can have sparking water and club

soda since they have no acid and will not streach our pouch? I really

miss carbonation...... I dont 'think' it would hurt when I swallow.. but

I will wait to try it until we get your reply

I don't think there is anything in club soda that can hurt you. Some can

tolerate the bubbles and some can't. It's like everything else: Trial

and Error

I distinctly remember being told by those in " authority " during the group

session the day before my surgery that carbonation would stretch the pouch!

Dana, Did I miss something? I remember a post not long ago in which you said

that you had been drinking Diet Pepsi (I think it was) and had h pylori. Also

Dr R told us several times in Clinic that we should never, never drink anything

carbonated as it was too harsh on our pouches and could stretch them. Would you

please check with him and see if he has changed the policy?

Thanks,

Sandy
