julieann2 Posted February 23, 2011 Report Share Posted February 23, 2011 I'm scheduled for a plication in late March and am curious about post-op rules for drinking alcohol. Obviously, one wouldn't drink right away, but after the first three or four weeks, could one expect to enjoy a glass of wine after dinner? What about other kinds of alcohol?

Boopsie72 Posted February 24, 2011 Report Share Posted February 24, 2011 Dr. Miranda told me that I could have wine/liquor with the plication surgery. BUT no beer because of the bubbles which will distend the belly. So no sodas either for 6 months until the stomach can set itself. I had wine last night after 2 weeks since surgery and I feel fine. Some of my friends who have had bypass said that in their surgery, they have to be careful with alcohol because the effects are highly intensified.

oliviam Posted February 24, 2011 Report Share Posted February 24, 2011 Oh my gosh I had like 2 oz of red wine at day 6! It was nice to relax me and it helped to not make me feel so deprived since I can't EAT anything! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
