Hi. I am 12 days post op constantly thirsty with a horrible dry mouth. I have water with me all day but never is my thirst quenched. How can I tell if I'm dehydrated?

If you become severely dehydrated it's difficult to keep anything in your stomach including water or other liquids. Not sure of other symptoms but that's a big red flag.

Pee is dark yellow. ..should be almost clear.

Hope this helps ....

Does anyone know specifically for the newly sleeved patients if it's any different?

I found it easier to eat Sonic Ice or sugar free Popsicles than drink water. Maybe that will help you get more liquids in?

Could be but I'm not having issues drinking just feel so dry.

Are you diabetic?

If you are or before being sleeved ( and the Dr took you off meds) check your blood sugar. This is another sign of diabetes and/or blood sugar is high.

Try powerade zero.
