Do you get dry mouth?
Posted by ed-tobias on March 4, 2019 at 9:32 amMy mouth often feels like cotton when I wake in the middle of the night…very dry. But it’s inconsistent. I can’t pin this problem on anything specific. Does anyone else have this problem?

At times I wake up with no fluid in the mouth, mouth is absolutely bone dry, I always have a bottle of water by my bedside table, just a sip or two tends to sort it out so I can go back to sleep. This has to be MS related as my mouth never got so bad before MS, dont think I can put this down to ” its just old age. “

YES!! Oh it is awful! Â My poor husband. My mouth is so dry some mornings. Medicines have a lot to do with it. I know the nights I take Baclofen close to bedtime it is bad. It can’t be good for the teeth?

Ann,
It might be the meds. However, I take the same meds every night and the dry mouth varies…some nights it doesn’t happen at all. I wonder if it has to do with what I eat between dinner and bedtime. It may be related to my sugar take. More sugar = dry mouth.
