Thirsty?

Does anyone feel like they are thirsty all the time? I feel like I can't get enough to drink! I'm 1 month post op and I am constantly drinking water, milk, juice etc. I can't find anything to quench my thirst!

I'm 7 weeks post op. I have same problem. My doc said its because all the extra water in your body is gone. He said it would eventually even itself out once your body adjusts.

I wonder when that will be

My doc said would probably close to the year mark....

Then i will continue to keep Water on the night stand and keep my water bottle with me during the day

How much liquid are you able to drink at one time? I am there with you, always feeling thirsty, but I am scared to drink too much at once and get sick. I wake up in the morning feeling like I slept with a towel in my mouth. So gross.

I'm going to try and bump it up a little at a time and see how I do. I never felt thirsty prior to surgery so this is very new for me.

After surgery i was lucky to be able to drink an oz an hour. Now i just have to make sure i don't drink to fast or to much to quickly

I drink all the time! It crazy! I'm probably drinking well over a cup an hour... Especially at work!

I'm the same way and 22 weeks out!!

Don't know why but when I am really thirsty I have a cup of Oceanspray LIGHT Cranberry juice and it helps. 5 cal, 2gr. Sugar.

I am always drinking. The back of my throat is horrible dry. I am also going to the dentist because my dry mouth is grossing me out and I hope teeth cleaning will help. Biotene makes tooth paste, mouth wash and mouth moisturing gel. It does help.

Popsicles help my thirst. And iced tea. I drink water but it goes down rough

I agree popsicles do help my thirst. Just water never seems to quench my thirst. It kinda stinks to be thirsty all the time.
