Living on 4-5 Fortisips a day, plus liquid medication (13 drugs). Also frequent sips of iced water that mount up on a bad day. Plus good old tea and coffee. Total liquid intake around 5 litres a day. Is this too much? Internet suggests a maximum of 2.5 - 3 litres.
Thanks, Meg
Hi Meg. Seems like a lot of hard work and you must spend a lot of time in the loo. If you can drink tea and coffee try full fat milk instead to up your calories to 2500. Is the iced water for pain relief? Maybe try more frequent difflam or caphosol if you have it? Gelclair is good for ulcers too.
