Increased Fluids - Saliva, Urine and Stomach Acid.

Does anyone else get massively increased bodily fluids - Saliva, Stomach Acid and General Urination - when upping dose?! It is the saliva that is most noticeable. My mouth is usually so dry but all of a sudden it is flooded by the salivary gladns and I have to spit every 30 seconds. It doesnt happen at smaller doses for me but once I get towards 3 grains of NDT it happens massively. This is the 2nd time this has happened to me so only just confirmed my theory that it is linked to getting towards the higher, and potentially more correct, doses.

Any thoughts? It does make me feel really sick though.

I think, if I recall correctly, that it usually subsides after a week or so of dose increase.

It might have nothing to do with the tabs. It sounds alot like adrenal fatigue - you actually may have low stomach acid (tied in with p anaemia, hashi's, coeliac) which is often mistaken for the opposite. Adrenal fatigue means you cannot hold onto water and pee every 2 minutes. I could be wrong, just my thoughts based on personal experience
