Sleeved on Thursday and struggling to get my liquids

Hi everyone I'm struggling a bit here and kind of concerned...I was sleeved on Thursday, discharged today and am on full liquids for 2 wks. Fortunately i am having virtually no pain. I am nervous because I my energy is kind of low and I am having a hard time sipping. I'm finding that when I start sipping I get a temporary stuck feeling in my throat and i have to wait before i can resume. I also get hiccups and feel some mild queasiness. I am able to keep everything down but I'm nervous that I am going to become dehydrated if this keeps up. How long should I expect to feel this way?

Any words of advice from those *****member their early post op days?

I am only a day earlier than you and I remember feeling like that yesterday.  I can handle more liquids today so long as I am taking small sips.

I am right there with you. I just keep sipping. I try to take smaller sips and when it hurts I just wait a little bit longer to take my next sip. I wish I had an answer for us both. Just know you are not alone and each day it should get better as we heel. I hear walking/standing while you drink helps. I'm not so sure, when I walk, it seems to irritate my stomach that much more. I feel like everything in my stomach is going back up my esophagus and the pressure is a killer. I will say a prayer for you and hope it gets better for both of us!

Thanks so much for the encouragement and prayers. It's great to have people to share this experience with!

Today was much better so I am encouraged to know that this is a one day at a time thing. Sipping while I stand definitely feels better and I diluted my sweet liquids with water because my formerly voracious sweet tooth has pretty much gone away. I am not sure if this is a temporary side effect or a permanent craving loss.
