Are you on a liquid diet? You should not be drinking juice as it has too much sugar. Stay on the Protein drinks. The first 3 -4 days are horrible, but after the sugar is out of your system for that long, it is much easier.

Your doctor should have given you clear written instructions for what you can eat/drink. What does he tell you to have?

@@mgiii, call your surgeon's office when it opens in the morning. Speak with the dietitian to get exact instruction on what to eat and drink until your surgery date. Tell the dietitian what you have been eating and drinking (including the kinds of juice you are drinking). Be sure to tell the dietitian about your health concerns, meaning about not being able to eat Jello or popsicles. Also be sure to tell the dietitian about your trachea or tracheotomy (I am not sure exactly what you meant). Before the conversation ends, please be sure that you understand everything. Ask questions about any of the instructions that are not clear to you.
