Dry Mouth

  When you take a drink of water, swish it around in your mouth before you swallow.

  You have dry mouth because your body needs more water than usual.  I try to just take one gulp at a time and swish to get my whole mouth wet.

  Yeah, I keep a nalgene with me at all times full of water so I can drink whenever I feel the urge...which seems like every other second the past few days!

  Also, try eating water-rich foods (fruits, veggies), as it will help.

  guess others have that too.  i do the swish-trick.

  it's maddening because i already am peeing a bunch, and then I have dry mouth. it's worse at night. then i pee even more at night. no wonder i sleep like crap.  (that and I'm super stressed).

  I totally have dry mouth too - especially at night.  Annoying.  My only remedy is to drink drink drink.  Also, the swishing thing seems to offer temp relief.  At night, I've started just trying to deal with it without drinking. (sometimes I swish and then spit the water out) because getting up every hour to pee was making me CRAZY.
