That didn't even make sense. My attitude is fine. Take the advice. Your body could handle that much salt pre op because you could make up for it by drinking more Fluid, you have a tiny stomach now that can't handle it.

scraping my tongue, brushing my teeth and swishing helps me deal with that a lot.

How do I get rid of it I sip Water all day. This dry mouth is killing me

What i did is having a chewing gum sugar free for few mins then spit it out

It helped alot with the dry mouth and weird taste and weird layer inside ur mouth

The tooth paste didn't help

I took it from day 2 after surgery

I did fine

I am 6 weeks out now

Good luck and hope i helped :)

For dry mouth I also chewed gum or sucked on sugar free mints. Research and asking others has been my best tool. I get rid of dry heaves by drinking lil sip of something carbonated. It releases gas by belching and releases the pressure. I understand it doesn't work for everyone. Diet ginger ale seems to work the best.

Then maybe you should call your doctor for an immediate answer since you can't be bothered with the banter a forum has.

While I sort of agree that this whole thing is kind of abrupt and it seems like the PT may not have done her part I think its important to consider that she is still rather fresh post op and shes sick.

I still have a dry mouth all the time too. Its like Im always thirsty. But I feel like Im drinking all tge time. In the mornings....man am I thirsty. And I have caught myself....too late a few times....taking too big of a drink because I was soooo thirsty. Boy....that hurt like heck. I didnt throw up but my stomach hurt BAD after.

Hope you feel better.

Well I think maybe its all of the heat in the house making dry air im sipping Water and now have a humidifier in my room cant afford to buy bioten right now I hear the product is great but its like every week im buying new things for my conditions. I went grocery shopping and got Powerade zero which I have drank before but this time my stomach disagrees... I tried to eat greek yogurt its disgusting... I need to get liquid in some way I should have got pedialite but I thought about it way too late

Honestly, mzrich, I would not buy gum. you will more than likely swallow a lot of air while chewing with will be uncomfortable, and lets say you accidentally swallowed a wad of gum, that would be bad too.

Stick with regular around the clock oral care, sipping your WARM beverages and you will start to feel better. My mouth is dryish too, but like you, I am not going to go buy anymore products.

Save up your money for the biotene mouthwash. It really works well. I use it all the time.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
