Up until now I hadn't been connecting dots about my dry mouth. I'm like the Sahara when I wake in the a.m. (or at nite to visit the loo).
Can't ever remember being this dry.
Periodontal problems in the last 10 yrs, first root canal 4 yrs ago (extracted it 1-1/2 yrs later...Duh! waste of $$), exposed roots on my back molars -extractions, on the 'R'-3 bottom/2 top (in the back, can't chew on the 'R') all last molars extracted (impacted), haven't found cavities...... yet !
Had great teeth til PN 10 yrs ago.
Clogged sinuses all my life, no sinus infections - just gotta blow my nosey off allatime & therefore breathe thru my mouth alot when awake.
I realized this must be my dryness a.m. symptom- but never THIS dry.
I gotta moisten my lips alot too.
Is it the Lyrica? Ultram? Zetia? ALA? CoQ10?, Niacin? tobacco?-
all of the above? (please,...don't start on the tobacco- I got enough stress lately, without a lecture on it)
I just never started to connect the dots on the dry mouth, just thunk it wuz sleeping (breathing) with my mouth open.
