practical suggestions for pwp and the 2am club......drooling

[beehive23]

Drooling sucks especially when you wake up with a wet pillow...which usually occurs mid to late stage pd. You can drink/eat pineapple which contains bromelain.. that acts to "dry" out the salivary gland which is controlled by the the parasympathetic/autonomic nervous system which ultimately becomes compromised from pd...imo .....try this before you get botox injected intoo the glands...botox is hit and miss, and does not feel good, i got it in my neck which i can no longer hold up very well after botox which i dc'd...it might make it better it might make it worse and is uncomfortable to say the least imo ... try pineapple first. i am not a dr im just passing on what others and myself have done that seems effective and is a naturral solution..get you meds from natures food before trying more drastiic solutions imo. hang tough...till you cant...then do something else...cheers 2am'ers....

I put a light towel on my pillowcase so it is easy to change each day.
