What can I drink that is not irritating?

Depends where you are on your EC journey..
Doing neoadjuvant treatments?
Post treatments but waiting on esophagectomy?
Are you recently post-esophagectomy?
Are you doing adjuvant treatments now?
What is being irritated... your esophagus? Your stomach? Your new stomaphagus?
What meds are you taking for any conditions you have... PPIs? Gaviscon? Antibiotics? Steroids? Type 2 diabetes?

@mrgvw Thank you. So many helpful people. I am not a candidate for esophagectomy. I'm doing chemo and radiation. I'm getting very dehydrated. I'm not sure what is getting irritated. General pain (not intolerable) in the lower stomach with some accompanying nausea. I'm "pre-diabetic."
I did try glucerna in the morning and taking prilosec before eating or drinking anything and that seems to help.
