Excessive salvia 2 days post-op is driving me crazy...anyone else?

[MyLife_MyStory 6]

I'm 2 days post op and now I'm at home. The salvia got worse after I was discharged. Anyone else experiencing the same thing and if so what are you doing?

Are you having a nasal drip? Nasal congestion? Generally that's the source of this. I've got recurring issues with my sinuses and being a phlegm machine so when I had my EGD done, and when I was post-op, it was no surprise I had phlegm in my throat, esophagus, and stomach as well. Because of your severe restrictions I'm under the impression that it's almost expected for you to have these issues, so talk to your family doctor and try to get to the underlying issues to treat that if it's affecting things like your sleep.

No nasal drip just constant coughing up phlegm and alot of spitting. Hopefully it goes away once my stomach heels.
