Everything for me was just fine. Had mine done at allentown also.Woke up in recovery and had discomfort and very dry mouth. They came every few hours for temp and ask if i had pain. I did but i had herrnia surgery at same time. Slept a lot because of pain killers. They give you some solution to wet your mouth but i dont think it helps. Wet a papertowel and use that instead or go to bathroom and swish water around and spit out. Stayed overnite and saw doc in am everything ok just had too wait for the barium x-ray. Taste terrible. As long as x-ray is good you'll be able to leave in a hr or so. After going home not hungry for a day or so, all you can have is liquid maybe a 1/4 cup or less. Lost ten pds first week alone. So far to date 43pds since surgery. had three fills and go for another on Wed the 22.
