Joy, it is good to hear from you.
Are you taking anything for the sleeping problem? I just used an OTC sleep aid such as Sominex (same as benedryl) and it worked pretty well for me.
Also, for the mouth...Biotene or Rembrandt (the one for canker sore sufferers) will help to prevent mouth irriatations.
Take care...
