BRENDAJAIN 6 Posted March 9, 2018 I’m having the same issue. I really can’t drink and I get these really bad pains sometimes followed by nausea... my first thought was that I was dehydrated bc that’s what they tell u, nausea it’s a sign of dehydration, idk how to drink more, I really can’t. Same with my Protein. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sideeye 1,440 Posted March 9, 2018 (edited) Try a warm herbal tea, it's almost the same temp as your throat/stomach so it's easier to figure out what's surgery pain and what's temperature irritation. I've also been taking a small sip of a liquid, but not swallowing it all at once - I kind of chew/swish it a bit in my mouth and then only swallow a little bit at a time (one sip = 3 swallows). Spaces the sip out by around 45 seconds. Started doing that on Day 3 when I started Protein Shakes and it definitely cleared the path enough that now I can take pretty large sips and swallow in one go. And if you're not taking liquid Tylenol, try that to take the edge off. Edited March 9, 2018 by sideeye 1 The World In My Eyes reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
