Cant Drink Enough! Help

I am 3 days post op and have had pounding headaches and my doctor says but it could be from not drinking or eating enough. Sense I'm only on a full liquid diet I need help. I've eaten jello popsicles fudgesicles even apple sauce. Also the nurse told me I could have soft eggs. I CAN'T DRINK WATER. I have such a hard time drinking!! I never drink alot. Do I have to drink just pure 64oz of water?? or can I dilute water with juice and drink 64oz of that!?? or put packets in it?? I can't do plain water!!! And I feel so bad

RAY. About you got your butt back on here!! Glad to see you here!

Hi everyone. I'm having my surgery on 9/5 and finding your posts to be really good info. Hope you all have a great long weekend and for everyone just thru sugary, wishing you speedy recoveries and comfortable days ahead! cheers! :-)

Best of luck with your 9/5 surgery. Golden information waiting here for you. Two words: Shaved Ice. It's a life saver after surgery. Helps with liquid intake, and it's crunchy like eating food. Looking forward to your posts...

Awesome, Ray. Yes, I am soaking up some sage advice already and plan to have my NINJA whirling away when I get home. I just googled the QUEST bars that some one suggested and found a distributor near my house. I am all set with flavored & unflavored protein powders, crystal light, propel, add infinitum, etc! LOL. Just 2-days and a wake-up call and I'm there! It's taken a year to get this far, but I feel really prepared and informed so it was worth it! I'm in So. Cal. Thanks for yor reply, Diane.
