Problem keeping fluids down

Greetings from Thailand. I had my surgery 2 weeks ago and all was well. 40 ml liquids on day 1 - no issues, 200 ml from day 2 onwards no issues.

But since last evening even small sips of any liquid chokes me and finally after 10 minutes or so comes out with a lot of frothy saliva. I feel week and dehydrated and scared to drink even a sip of Water. Lot of burping too.

Any idea what could be wrong ? Please help.

Perhaps you're drinking too fast. I'm having no issues with liquids so I tend to drink them fast and then I get burpy and urchy. Try to slow down a bit.

What you are describing does not seem like a normal experience. Until you can figure out what is happening, perhaps you can eat some ice chips to keep from becoming totally dehydrated.

@@nagaraj.prasadh, maybe make a quick phone call to your surgeons office and see what they have to say. You definitely do not want to end up dehydrated.
