water question

[Guest guest]

This is kind of an off the wall question that occurred to me while

eating my supper.

it seems pretty common for new post-ops to struggle with getting

enough water in. Out of curiousity, is this because you are simply

not thirsty or are you thirsty but it hurts/feels weird so you don't

want to drink it. I drink water all the time and anything I eat makes

me thirsty and I drink a minimum of a quart of water with every meal

or snack. I just want someone to reassure me that after surgery I

won't be sitting there very thirsty and not being able to drink much

because it hurts too much.

Thanks
