Interesting Thread!
Hi Debbie and All,
Hmmmm - that would explain alot, neuropathy! My mouth is sooooo dry all the time and spices of any kind hurt. I am constantly biting my lip or tongue while eating which is just so weird, why after all these years would I not be able to simply eat without biting my own mouth all the time. Neuropathy never occurred to me but I definitely have it in my feet. I will be interested to follow what this thread provides as possible answers.
I do keep Hall's Breezers Strawberry candies handy all the time - it really has been the only thing that helps my dry mouth. They are for dry mouth and throat and are non-mentholated.
Thanks so much for posting this!
Have a great day!
Donna
