Okay.. gross question here.  LOL  But I know I can ask it among friends. Am I the only one with dragon breath?  I have to contantly check my breath.  I have such a bad taste in my mouth.  Also.. I have noticed that when I wake up I smell a little funky.  I take a shower every day.. but I wonder if something with this new anatomy is causing my breath and BO.  LOL   I know when I was on Atkins your body would go into ketosis because of the lack of carbs.. Maybe that is what happens.  I don't know.  I just don't want to be stinky.

JENN, I had it for a few weeks post-op. SF Livesavers were lifesavers! Love the wintergreen flavor and really helped the breath! Good luck, Sheila

I am a work in progress and I am committed to progress with the work ahead of me.....
