the meds will make your mouth dry but getting the benefit of control may make it worth it.

you should discuss this with your dr. he may be able to help.
Thanks for the suggestions. The mattress pad is probably a really good idea. I was so embarrassed I didn't want to tell DH, but when I was checking the bed to see if it was wet, he wanted to know what I was doing, so I told him. He made a joke about it and we have been laughing since. Boy, am I lucky to have him!

I told my mom what happened and she suggested that I start wearing Depends.... DEPENDS! I'm 41 and I kind of freaked out a little bit. This disease has a way of stuffing my pride down my throat...

I have a neuro appt about mid-March so I will put this on the list of things to discuss with him.
