Is there anyone else a week out dying of thirst but just can't get the amount of fluids to every not be thirsty? I'm drinking all day, but can't seem to every beat the thirst. What have you guys found that has provided you the most relieve?

you could add a sugar free popsicle. I really like the Del Monte Real fruit popsicles.

Thanks for the advice. I will have to try that.

I found that not all water is created equal. Tap water tastes like the pool to me, I'll drink it but I can't drink a lot. Life water has a really good taste to me and I can easily drink a 1 liter bottle in the first half of the day, it just seems to go down easier. I was always against bottled water for the sake of the environment but until I get a good filtration set up at home its worth it for me to be able to drink it.

I am the same way since the day of surgery (8/30/16). From the time I get up to the time I shut my eyes, I am always thirsty. Like @hmills653, not all water tastes the same or even good to me. Gum and mints provide a little relief and allow me to change things up. I don't have a good solution for you, but wanted to let you know that you're not alone, @southernbellair79.

Thanks!!! The thirst is so real I was not expecting that.

I'm 4 days out and so far just switching liquids as been good for me. Though water is the best i can't drink plain water unless really cold. I was told you can use the crystal light packets.

The thirst is the worst part for me. I would give a million dollars if I could just chug a giant Gatorade to extinguish it. The best thing I've found is Sugar Free popsicles. It's the only thing that gives me relief.

I have a cup of crushed ice, every chance I get! I was/am drinking lots of water but the ice made me not feel dehydrated

Tracy, yes I have ice next to me all day. It helps a little. I am going to try popsicles.
