I did a search on this and saw a few posts from 2005-2006. Just wondering if anyone shares this symptom? I get excess saliva very randomly, comes and goes.
When I was first acutely sick it was so bad I had to spit in a cup to keep from getting nauseous. Now it's more of an off and on nuisance. LD or Co's messing with glands? Any thoughts? This is by far not one of my worst symptoms by any stretch...guess it's just the misery loves company thing. Thanks. TS

Yes! This was one of my first symptoms. It came and went monthly. For me, it was just a gush of saliva at random points in the day, so much that I felt I couldn't swallow. It went away about 6 months into treatment. My LLMD thought Bartonella. You're the only other person I've seen make reference to this.

My son has had this happen a few times over the summer. He said he also feels nauseous when this happens. The other day he said he ran out on the deck and spit out a "puddle" of saliva.
Now that school has started again he is concerned that he will have this happen in school. I was thinking it could be related to a food he ate but maybe it is more Lyme related.

I get this too. I'm not sure what causes it, but I have been diagnosed with Lyme, Bart, Babs.
It hasn't been bad as of late, but there are times when it gets pretty nasty.

This symptom is continuous for my husband and has been for many years.
He gets strangled on his own saliva several times a day, drools on his pillow, and drools when he doesn't remember to swallow.
Heavy salivation is a symptom of elevated mercury levels, so I've been hoping it would resolve when he has more chelation.
