What Causes Waking Up With Mouth Full Of Froth After Lap-band Surgery?
I have had lapband surgery. Recently, I started doing what they call frothing at night. What I dont understand is why I seem to have no trouble during the day but as soon as I go to sleep for the night I start frothing. I wake up with a mouth full of what feels like froth.

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, the symptoms may not be related with the surgery done but it seems to be due to acid peptic disease and that needs to be ruled out as long as the history of surgery is concern it is better to inform about the symptom to doctor or discuss this meanwhile Tab Omeprazole 40 mg once in day can be tried hope this information helps.
