tezjjj 4 Posted October 15, 2016 Hi everyone, im roughly 3 weeks post-op so far so good; however, my mouth stays extremely dry, lips chapped, I keep Vaseline on my lips and I find myself eating ice alllllllll day. Has anyone else experienced this, hoping this is not a sign of dehydration. Any suggestions??? Sent from my SM-N910T using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rolosmom7 740 Posted October 15, 2016 It's very common. Biotene mouthwash should help, you can get it at Target, CVS, etc. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sickoftroublemakers 14 Posted October 15, 2016 I'm having the same problems, but now my lips aren't chap no more. I wake up in the middle of the night with dry mouth. I keep a bottle of Water on my nightstand which helps. Good luck Sent from my LG-H631 using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
