I also got some suppositories from the doc that helped. As far as
water.. that was all I drank before treatment, but
during treatment I could not even stand the thought of drinking water.. I did a lot of gingerale, lemonade and kool ade.. Sierra Mist was also good.. When I did start drinking water again, it had to be very cold and out of a plastic bottle.. strange, but it was the only way I could drink it.. Good luck to you and I hope you feel better.
