I didn't realize how hard it is to get water to stay down

Yes it is! I used a medicine cup that holds one ounce and slowly sipped from it. This made it very doable so I wouldn't get dehydrated. As the swelling goes down it gets easier.

It gets better I promise...sip, sip, sip all the live long day!

A lot of people find it easier to drink water with something mixed in - like crystal light. Not sure why that is, but it totally worked for me too. Or broth or tea or other flavorings that work for you. It does get easier in time!
