Sahara Desert...

I was sleeved on Feb. 7th. I spent a week at home, followed by a week in the hospital. I was having severe stomach cramps and they eventually found that my stomach was rejecting the staples, swelling up, and pissing off my pancreas giving me pancreatitis.

Everything has been fine since then. I haven't had any more issues, except... I wake up every morning with a mouth like the sahara desert. Its so bad that my lips crack. I sleep with my mouth cracked open. I have never had this issue before.

I'm doing my best to get all my fluids in and am on the soft food stage. I still eat alot of purees and Soups. But no matter how much Fluid I get in, I still wake up with a terribly dry mouth.

Any thoughts or has anyone else had this happen?

  • My man put a humidifier in the bedroom. I may still wake up with ketone horse breath, but not dried out lips. Also, bring out the Chapstick.

I have a humidifier by my bed and a bottle of water. I wake up during the night w/a dry mouth and take a sip of water. I'm hoping as I loose more weight that this will stop. I've tried breathe right strips for the nose that sometimes helps. Why this happens I really don't know but it is worse if I sleep on my back.
