Back at home after the surgery and finally feeling a bit better today
First week is the toughest. Right around day 7 or so if I recall it became a lot easier. Try different temps for liquids. Early out warm tea sat best for me. Congrats on being through it!!

Glad to hear it went well and your home. Getting fluids in is tough. I'm still struggling to get the minimum of 6 cups a day, and almost 2 weeks out. Have only got 6 cups or over once. Usually around 5 cups.
I never had issues with pain with the liquids, but I'm sure it will get better in no time.
Just do your best on getting your fluids in.
Take care.
