When you say drink a lot, do you mean 'neck a pint'?
I have to say the only time i got pain from drinking was when i forgot and gulped it down. If you are sipping away at it rather than big mouthfuls you shouldn't get pain.
Fluid is straight through (especially at your early stage as there is no solids in there to slow the progress of it) in one end and out the other...
Don't worry if you are drinking a lot. That is a FANTASTIC thing to do, fluids are the most important thing for you right now...
If you got any worries, feel free to message me xx

Why are you expecting pain when you drink?
Drinking shouldn't cause pain.
If you gulp at your drink it may cause some discomfort but not pain.
Drinks slip through you stomach very easily so you can drink loads don't worry about the amount unless you are on the alcohol already

That was also exsplains why when I eat I don't get a full feeling as its puréed to a water like consistency.

I literally just came onto the forum to get some help about this exact same thing... I was wondering why I don't feel full. But I too am on the pureed stage so this makes perfect sense, thank you!! X
