I gave up all sweet things, getting my sugar from fruit, when I was diagnosed as diabetic.
I started passing out occasionally and the doc said it was down to that and that the body will always react to sudden changes in eating or drinking habits.

May be a sign of vitamin deficiency.

I had tests for various ailments, and discovered i had  b12 deficiency.

One of the symptoms was a dry mouth, especially on waking up in the morning.

Hope its not that though. The 3 monthly injections are not very nice :)

Drink less alcohol - like not 4 days out of 7 per week.

Otherwise expect to die slowly.
Report Aunty Post • November 14, 2014 8:50 AM GMT
I'm assuming you are taking some prescription drugs.

Dry mouth is a common cause of many of them.

Read the labels for "Side Effects" or obviously ask your GP.......

"If dry mouth is caused by something like medication  -- it is a common side effect of drugs used to treat depression, anxiety, pain, allergies (antihistamines and decongestants), diarrhea, urinary incontinence, and Parkinson's disease --  your dentist or doctor will consider making a change. That may mean trying a different medication or adjusting the dosage".

My mouth is dry for much of the time due, we think, from the "Amitriptylene" (Happy pills) that I take to help with my neuropathy.

I always carry a water bottle as I have learnt I will regret it if not (also for dispepsia).

Kenny may have been joking but he's correct.

You don't need B12 injections if you're depleted, you can buy massive dozes anywhere from H&B to Boots if your diet hasn't enough. Are your lips dry and chapped? Little cuts at the corners of your mouth?
Do you drink enough water, a lot of people don't.
Simple dehydration can cause dry mouth.

"You must sleep very well"

Would that was the case but unfortunately it isn't!

I'm on the max dose of 3 tablets, taken in the evening, and I'm a raving insomniac.

bhoys, well done on your drink free month, if nothing but saving you a few ££££s it gives your liver a welcome break.

not sure about the " dry mouth ", have a look at the colour of your urine when you have a piss, it should my fairly clear !!!

....if its like mine sometimes ( the colour of a freshly poured cask ale ) try and get into the habit of taking more water...all the best

GLASGOW.   Happy

Had dry mouth and badly chapped lips appear out of the blue four or five weeks ago. I don't drink or smoke and am not on any medication, and it took weeks to work out that the cause was vitamin B deficiency (probably B2/riboflavin, necessary for cell repair).

I'd calculated that I was comfortably getting the recommended amount via meat, dairy etc., but I added a couple of slices of Marmite each lunchtime to see whether it helped, and, hey presto! all the symptoms have cleared up within three days.

Vit B deficiency leads to all sorts of complications, so it was pleasing that a relatively harmless one alerted me to what my body happens to need.

The problem is that B vitamins dissolve in water, which means you pee and sweat them out, instead of storing them. So you have to replenish them every day. A couple of daily slices of Marmite for me from now on, I reckon.

You might like to look up Sjogren's Syndrome, although it tends to affect women more than men.  It runs in my family even though I don't have it personally as yet.
I think they just do a blood test for it but not all GP's seem to be aware of it.
