  • If it's easier to drink warm fluids, drink as much as you can of that. Make chicken, beef, or miso broth and add in unflavored protein powder. If you have the Unjury chicken soup protein, try that. Ri

  • Bufflehead is right. Just sip water for now. If cold bothers you, try room temp or warm. I drank Crystal Lite grape.

If it's easier to drink warm fluids, drink as much as you can of that. Make chicken, beef, or miso broth and add in unflavored protein powder. If you have the Unjury chicken soup protein, try that. Right now what is most important is hydraftion. Protein is important but secondary. Sip as much as you can. Good luck!

@@PurpleJazz It's a process for sure. I kept a "bucket" of ice next to my chair with water & isopure in it. I used a medicine cup to drink out of. When those got to hard to get down I switched to coconut water which is a super hydrator and sipped on that. It's going to take time. Just keep at it and if you can't do cold then do room temp.

Everyone is right. Go slow. Do what you can to stay hydrated. Drink beverages at room temp or warm. Try diluting the Isopure or try another brand. Some parts of this are trial and error. Pain 2 days out is normal.

Im worried about my drain tube, it keeps getting clogged and now the color has turned like a yellowish green. I was sleeved on 10-13
