excess saliva in mouth making me feel sick

what should I do?
is there a remedy or any tips?

with previous 2 pgs I had this, but as I was craving beer (had alcohol free) it helped reduce the nausea

this time round I don't fancy beer.
I can't think if anything to make this better, I have to keep spitting it out or it gives me a stomach ache (as I can't really eat much)

help!

No miracle cure to offer, sorry - but wanted to empathise because its so vile isnt it! I am finding that having something cold and fizzy on the go constantly is helping me swallow. Either full fat tango/Fanta or tonic water is okay.

Hope you find something that helps. Meanwhile lots of tissue required x

I found nibbling on dry oat cakes helped to manage some of the extra spit. Bleugh

thank you both!

Fanta and plain brioche are all I can tolerate,

everything else leaves a sour taste (or I just can't face it)

I feel sorry for those poor dogs of Pavlov!Grin

I can sympathise, it's horrid isn't it. I've tried sipping water and eating crackers or dry crispbread which can help a tiny bit.

I almost titled this "excess saliva and mucus*

I was dry heaving this morning, trying to get rid of both.

so horrible, isn't it? makes you feel so horrible.
I took echinacea, it tends to help the cold.
