Re: If you take a medication that causes dry mouth/dry throat - how do you handle it?

Thank you everyone, more great ideas.

 

Also I found a good solution for the dry eyes - my eye doc recommended Blink Tears Lubricating eye drops for day. For night these are the best - 

 

Systane Gel Drops

 

You have to put them in right before bed - they coat the eyes so well you won't be able to read or watch TV. But no more dry eyes waking me up at night.

 

I also increased my daily ProMega to include a second one before bed, eliminated alcohol mouthwash, and switched to tom's natural toothpaste. With lots of water and hot tea, it is getting more tolerable. I keep water and Ricola drops on the nightstand because I still have not found the Biotene spray.

 

Thanks again! Smiley Happy
