I wear a c-pap mask, and get extremely dry in my mouth at night. I never had
this problem pro-op. (My sleep mask has a humidifier on it that I use also). Anyway, I get Sooo dry that my mouth is totally parched. I sometimes wake up 2-3 times just to drink water to moisten my mouth (usually 25 oz all night)and when I wake up, I feel I have to wait 10-15 minutes before getting up to drink 25 oz before getting out of bed. Anyway, does this lst 25 oz (before getting out of bed)count towards all of the fluids I'm supposed to drink all day? I sometimes feel like a baby at night filling up my 2 bottles to take to bed, but know this is what I have to do. Any/all info would be greatly appreciated. You all are fantastic and I love printing off all of the questions and learning from Q&A board.
