Does anyone suffer from a constant dry mouth I'm not overly thirsty with it, when I eat feels like I've not got any saliva and food feels difficult to break down if this makes sense
 
I used to have this for the last 3-4 years due to medicine I thought, now I don´t know , it has gone as I have gotten my blood numbers down to normal levels..... so now I think it is maybe because my blood glucose has been raised for that many years
 
Got the same symtoms driving me mad but can't help sorry, only after food but eating no saliva then start to choke swallow difficult then after eating feel awful !!
 
I have dry mouth when my blood sugar is running very high-also when I am dehydrated. Try drinking water with your meal or snack.

I have the dry mouth most of the time but I have found that just one blackberry freshly picked from a bush does wonders!

Yes I constantly have a dry mouth and suck riccola sweets a lot. I thought it was from the amytriptalline that I take as a pain modifier but perhaps I am wrong.
