severe dry mouth
I have mentioned before about my autoimmune disease called sjogren's syndrome and how it presents with a very dry mouth and eyes. I just finished my first round of A/C on Thursday, May 25, a day I will never forget. Anyway, I have such extreme dryness in my mouth, and believe me, I know from dryness. Other than sugar free gum and candy, biotene mouthwash and paste and water, is there anything else anyone can think of to help? It is so annoying and I feel like I have to always keep flossing and brushing or my mouth feels gross. Thanks in advance for your assistance with this.
