" Hi Trisha;
I have had my liver transplant 21 years March 28th. I have cotton mouth but mine is from one of my blood pressure meds. Look your meds up on line and you can sees side affects.
Glad your doing well, Hugs, :) Sue "

" I guess I haven't run into having the cotton mouth thing yet. I just can't sleep well and I think the meds are causing me to become irritable and/or depressed. "
