Hey family, I had my sleeve done on Friday the 28th. I just left the hospital and will be on my own tonight I can't sleep, and my mouth will not stop having to SPIT. I have filled up a cup already and it's seems thats the reason I can't sleep.... Somebody help me please...

Just some thoughts/ideas: Don't drink anything 30 minutes before bed time. Also, try to prop yourself up and sleep on your back and see if that doesn't help keep things down.

If it continues all night, I'd call my doctor in the morning.

That happened to me also, I found taking smaller sips while standing really helped me. When you get nauseous, you are taking a mouthful rather than a small sip and should wait more than 5 minutes between sips, I hope this helps.

I used to have this happen to me...especially after I ate to much. I thought there was something seriously wrong with my saliva glands! This to shall pass. In the mean time...keep a cup handy to spit it all out...cause swallowing it will make you queazy. Try to sleep on your side with a towel underneath your mouth so your pillow doesn't get drenched. Make sure not to overfill your stomach with Water, or anything else. It will get better....it is all part of the process.

I had that too but it was caused by my pain meds. It stopped at Day 4, and now only happens when I over-do it.
