Hi , it s the third night in a row where when I lay gown to sleep my mouth produces an excessive amount of saliva and I am swallowing nonstop. Feels like something sticky on my uvula or back of throat. I ve tried allergy medicine, cough syrup, cough drops, gargling salt water, sleeping up right, and nothing is working.
