    My nurse is meant to be ringing me re this…I don’t really drink but got a meal booked on 23rd and they do gorge cocktails so I only want or two max so so hoping it will b ok! Got told though that alcohol affects healing?! Good idea about losing a few pounds now in prep for the bloat…I’m not looking forward to that eithe! X

    Iv spoke to a few people who have drank up until 3 day before the op and then drank 5 days after. And been absolutely fine. It’s just it can take a little longer for brushing to go.. xx I’m having a mulled wine tonight xx when i had my last ba I drank a few days later x think it depends on how u feel. As yr anti biotics end after 7 days so I think 7 days post op should be fine x

    I don’t know what caused my bloat hun but I was going to the toilet regularly after 2 days post op! Maybe it’s from the swelling snd because my surgeon doesn’t use drains. I read that the excess fluid travels around yor body. It was gross!! I waited 2 weeks till I had a drink xx
