Re: saliva - tips
Billy, here are a few tips to help you to remember to swallow. Tuck a clove or a piece of carrot between your teeth and cheek (like we used to do for toothache) or chew gum (sugarless, preferably) to stimulate the swallow reflex. If you tend to choke, be careful with the clove/carrot. Perhaps sucking on a dummy (that's a soother or pacifier in your part of the world) filled with something wonderful like condensed milk or whisky might help too (just joking).
