Monday was my surgery.(r ny). Still pretty uncomfortable. Having a hard time drinking my fluids. A sip here and there is all I can do. Hoping this gets better.

Uncomfortable, yes but you'll be turning the corner soon.  That first week or two, I'd lay in the recliner with a sports bottle of water propped up on a pillow next to my mouth and water would drain in slowly.  Sounds pathetic but it worked.

LOL, I am sorry but just the picture tickled me and made me realize how ingenious people are in meeting their needs!

That was great.  I would never have thought of that!

It gets better, I promise.  Have you tried different temperature liquids because for some the temperature really impacts how difficult it is to drink enough.  Keep sipping, you do want to stay hydrated.
