Kind Of Weird....

[smmrsue 56]

For this that are on, or were on an all liquid pre op diet... Did/does your tongue feel weird?

My tongue feels thicker, I'm on day #6 and I noticed at day 3-4. I am well hydrated as I'm meeting my 64 oz goal. It's a weird feeling. Anyone else have this problem or am I just "special"? Lol. Thanks in advance!

Yout tongue will get like a fur on it, making it feel bigger .. like cotton mouth if u arent eating solid food and it doesnt slough off. Protein shakes are notorious for it if u are drinking them

I would use one of theose toothbrushes with the tongue brush thing on .. or chew gum

If your tongue is really swollen might be an idea to call the doctor as u may have an allergy to something ..

Thanks Cazzy! The fur makes sense. (Ewe!) never knew! TMI, but I brush my tongue.... Guess it's time to bust out the tongue scraper I never thought I'd use. Lol.

I never thought I would have to use a tongue scrapper too. I still use my periodically.
