Any dryness

[Misha 0]

Hi I had my surgery 12/10/12 and two weeks after I am constantly having dry throat or mouth. And I can't just drink Water to get it right. Has anyone else have this problem? If so how do you deal with it?

I drink 8 glasses of Water a day, and have a dry mouth often. It's worst when I wake up! I really haven't found a solution yet, other than to always have a bottle of Water with me. I make sure to drink 2 glasses of water after waking up, and 2 glasses between each meal.

Hopefully someone else on here will have an explanation or solution!

You are probably dehydrated! I was having major issues w my mouth being dry and I couldn't drink anything because everything tastes horrible! Water tastes like dirt! I ended up getting IV fluids and I feel like a new person!

I totally had that issue as well- I think for me it was that I always felt like I couldn't get enough liquid because I was sooooo used to chugging before. For me it was almost psychological. But you could also be dehydrated too- Sip Sip Sip Sip - mantra for after surgery

I had surgery on the 11th and I have felt that a lot since surgery...I always have something to drink but I get it, it doesn't always help.

Don't forget pain medicine will give you dry mouth also.

I am pre surgery, but have dry mouth. Biotene mouth wash is wonderful.
