Ive been using the Biotene Oral Balance LIQUID..
I asked my sleep doc about using this and he said NO. Why? The man has sleep apnea too, he must have suffered dry mouth at one time or another. My dry mouth has gotten worse with the CPAP, but I had it before CPAP too. Dry eyes too, and now, I have lots of red lines in my eyes, I used to have such pretty dark brown eyes.

I am so tired of no real answers.

I hope you can find an active Sjorgen's group, I KNOW there is one out there and I know from reading Silverlady's experiences and having met in my neighborhood one so afflicted that it's miserable stuff. I truly do hope that isn't YOUR case tho
Me too, I don't want to be a member of this support group...I mean, how many support groups does one person need?

Did he mean three crackers, dry, without anything on them?
Yeah, he meant 3 dry crackers. I guess if you can't deal with 3 dry crackers, then you must have Sjogrens!!! I do not eat any crackers, I do not eat any grains. So, I can't do this test.
