I use ACT mouth wash for dry mouth. Seems to help.

You can get a humidifier for your room at night. I just had nose surgery and didn't realize how much pain I would be in from the breathing tube they put down your throat, my WLS surgery isn't until next month. I also keep a bottle of water by my bed so that when I wake up in the middle of the night I can take a little sip. Still, one night was so bad I slept with a damp wash cloth over my face to keep the air moist. It's been a little over a week from my surgery and my voice sounds horrible, the doc said some people's throats just take longer to heal after the breathing tube.

Good Luck!

Thank you Ladies, I am going to try everything.

And my voice is much softer I can't yell at all. I hope my throat heals up soon it hurts bad.

i had horrible, wake you up 2-3x a night, cotton mouth for about the first 3 weeks post op. just keep your water bottle close and make sure you get your fluids daily. it does get better. i promise.
