      Good luck with your surgery! Take it slow and follow your plan - it's major surgery so it'll take time to heal.

    I've been able to gulp my drinks since day 2 (when I was in the hospital I was not ALLOWED to drink anything). I would NOT be able to chug something but I can take decent sized gulps of water just fine. I do feel the drink/food go down and sometimes it's uncomfortable whether I sip or not. Makes absolutely no difference on the size of the sip.
