Guest guest Posted May 12, 2003 Report Share Posted May 12, 2003 Joan, Your dentist said it was dry mouth, right? There are so many things that can cause dry mouth from diabetes to medications to not drinking enough. I would think it would be hard to say it was definitely WLS related based on dry mouth. This is just my opinion however. Lori Owen - Denton, Texas SRVG 7/16/01 Dr. Ritter/Dr. Bryce On Mon, 12 May 2003 11:17:45 -0700 " Joan Englund " writes: > Oh My!
