Everything you're feeling right now is normal. It will get easier to drink normally once you're healed and your stomach isn't swollen. In the meantime, just sip all the time so you stay well hydrated.

You'll be fine. Best wishes

After surgery I was only able to take small sips. Now I can pretty much guzzle Water the way I did pre-op. When you're newly post-op, there are a bunch of oddities that subside with healing and time.

Good luck!

I can and do drink normally. The only thing I can't take a big swallow of is pop, which I shouldn't be drinking anyways but on occasion maybe once a week I allow myself a few sips of a drink. Your whole body is adjusting to the new internal environment and each day things will get easier, promise =)
