How long did your dry mouth last

[canuckpaisa 61]

Drinking 80-100 oz a day. I have a CPAP, and it is humidified, but I am waking up about 8 times a night with the dryest mouth. Nee a few sprays of Biotene then back to sleep.

Anyone have this and when does it go away?

I'm 13 weeks post op. I get dry mouth fairly regularly and it's generally when the scales are moving.

My belief is that my dry mouth is from being in a state of ketosis. Keep sipping!

Cheers,

I have a CPAP and get dry mouth almost every night. But it has been happening since I started using the CPAP machine 3 years ago. I just figured it was normal.

I am pre-op and I have dry mouth and furry teeth whenever I'm in a state of ketosis. Typically, I stay in Ketosis if I'm under 40ish carbs... or like now when my carbs are sometimes a bit higher than that, but my overall calories are under 800.

I have been using my cpap for 8yrs now. I stopped using the humidifier about 3years ago and once I got use to not using my dry mouth has one away for the most part.

I'm almost 4 weeks post-op and wake up every night with dry mouth! I'm hitting 64oz of liquid daily. So I tried to up it yesterday to eliminate that terrible nightly dry mouth. But I still had it last night! I will keep trying to up the liquids. It's like a hangover without all of the fun!
