dry mouth

Since my surgery in Sept I have been waking every morning with the worst case of dry mouth. I feel like I had been left in the Sahara desert for mths and no water to drink. I know I am getting in close the the daily amt of water. Has anyone else had this problem since surgery? And is there anything I can do...Thanks for any help!!!!!!!!!!!!

Maybe try Walmarts sugar free hard candies to suck on and keep your mouth moist??? of course get the daily water intake... hope it gets better! jen

I have the same problem so I started keeping a glass of water next to the bed and drinking it anytime I wake up during the night. It helps a little but not much. I have never felt this dry in my life. I have actually had my tongue stuck to the roof of my mouth frm being so dry. I hope it gets better for both of us soon. Mary

It hasn't been a week yet, and my mouth is so dry. I told Trent today that I felt like it tasted like poop...she said I met to tell you, it smells like it too. I had to box him. Deb
