how are you feeling & how was your surgery?

My surgery went well I feel great except I'm concerned I'm not getting enough fluids.

I am scheduled for surgery on thursday & I am very nervous!! So your not in a lot of pain? Are you hungry at all? Where did u have surgery?? Are you sipping Water every couple of hours?? Good luck on your recovery !!

My doctor told me to take one or two sips every 15 minutes. Right after surgery it will be impossible to get all the fluids you need...just do your best. It gets easier over time.

I found Fruit20 at Sam's Club. Great tasting. No calories. No carbonation. No sugar. Gives a break from plain 'ol Water. Try some Crystal Light powders in your bottled water. I especially like the Peach flavoring. Hope you continue to get better, and you will. Stay focused.

Before surgery, I used to drink 3-4 liters of water/day and I hated crystal light and that drink garbage.

Now, 2.5 weeks post op, I find it hard to drink plain Water. I can only sip it. When something has flavor, I can gulp it. I'm changing my tune about crystal light!

you need to constantly be sipping Water not just every 15 minutes. I am 5 days post op and each day it gets easier to sip. Breakfast this morning is diluted, unsweetened apple juice yum! I am on clears until tuesday so will be haiving chicken broth, Jello and the like. Keep sipping!!!

My doc has me pouring my drinks in those medicine cups an those cups should take me a out 10 minutes each to finish.

I had mine done at Lehigh Valley Hospital. I am not in a lot of pain to be honest when I was discharged I went to the mall to walk best thing I ever did for the gas pain. One piece of advice I found useful once out of surgery don't go for narcotic pain killers they increase nausea I opted for Toradol and it worked miracles.

Ok I'm going out for some crystal light see if that works. Thank you for all your suggestions I'm gonna try them one at a time till I find one that works best for me.
