Question:
About the dry lips and mouth,

do they let you have any of those moist swabs when you wake up to swab out your mouth and add some moisture? I remember having them after my hysterectomy and they were wonderful.    — Tina H. (posted on May 1, 2000)

Yes, I had them. However, they did not offer them to me, I had to ask for them. I believe they are called glycerin swabs. Don't be afraid to ask for them if they are not provided to you at first. Best of luck...
