Just Set the Date!!

Just got back from my appointment with the surgeon, I'm gonna get sleeved in mid August!!!

It's taken a while to get here (my initial appt was way back in Nov 2017) but am glad I got months to mentally prepare. So excited!!

I read somewhere on here about getting somekind of mouth spray to simulate saliva. I don't think it's available here. Any alternative?

  • First, congrats on getting your date. Did you try ordering it online? If you look it up on say amazon they will give you a list of alternatives on the same page. Maybe one of those will be available f

Congrats to you.. I wish you the best luck with your surgery.
Could you be meaning Biotene? Many Bari-Pals swear by it, I am pre surgery so haven't had a chance to use it yet!???
Congrats!

Yes, biotene! It doesn't seem to be available here :(

First, congrats on getting your date. Did you try ordering it online? If you look it up on say amazon they will give you a list of alternatives on the same page. Maybe one of those will be available for you. I had it and used it one time. It was quite a shock as I had never used it before. Very minty and for sure made my saliva kick into high gear. I didn't use it again after that.

Check Wal-Mart, CVS and Rite-Aid if you have any of those. If not go on your search engine, I use Google and Mozilla Firefox and look for their website. And I'm sure Amazon would have it, they even stock things I DON T WANT!?
