    For the first few days, it is going to be a challenge, especially 3 litres! If it's medically necessary for you, could they do some IV fluids?

    After you are healed you'll have no trouble drinking water.

    Sounds like you are already a good water drinker so once you are healed from surgery, you will be fine.
