Extremely dry mouth

[illinoishusker 0]

Ok, I've never been a huge Water consumer, but I'm way bigger now. I have a water bottle by me all the time.

My mouth is dry all the time! Is this normal?

I'm not dehydrated, I use the bathroom a lot, and I'm drinking a lot.

I'm newly banded (10 days out) and this is a huge surprise to me.

I don't know, but I found the same thing. The more I drink, the drier my mouth is and the thirstier I am as well.

I was given a patch behind the ear to prevent nausea and the nurse told me it would cause me to be extremely thirsty. She said if it was unbearable to take it off when I got home. Maybe the anti-nausea meds are doing it to you?
