Do you have an emergency number for your surgeon?  Or you nutritionist maybe?  Have you tried soy or almond milk with your protein shakes to help with the sweetness (it that's what makes you gag)  I hear they do have liquid vitamins also - maybe that will help...

HI, I SEE WE WERE SLEEVED ON THE SAME DAY. I WOULD CERTAINLY CONTACT YOUR SURGEON. YOU DON'T WANT TO GET DEHYDRATED, I WENT TO MY DOCTOR FOR MY FOLLOW UP VISIT YESTERDAY AND ENDED UP IN THE HOSPITAL FOR DEHYDRATION AND LOW POTASSIUM. HE DIDN'T ADMIT ME BUT I WAS THERE FOR TWELVE HOURS. MY DOCTOR OKAYED ME TO TAKE REGULAR VITAMINS AS LONG AS I DIDN'T HAVE A PROBLEM SWOLLOWING THEM. I HOPE YOU GET SOME RELIEF!!!

I was dehydrated when I went for my post-op visit and had a lot of the same symptoms you are talking about.  He sent me over to the ER and they hooked me up to a bag of fluids - they called it a "banana bag" because it was yellow in color.  After that, it has been smooth sailing ever since!  My doc had also told me he wished I had contacted him before my appt.  So call your surgeon's office!
