Hi Lefty,

At the risk of pulling this thread more OT, to me saliva and dry mouth are related but different.

Throughout treatment, the lowest level of saliva production was about 60%. Needed extra fluid while taking in food during the times I could manage.

Dry mouth on the other hand was very low, maybe 10% with an exception or two. Recently, for the first time, I had a bout of dry mouth while sleeping. It went on for a month or so until I figured out when really tired and sleeping hard, I would breathe through my mouth which caused the dry mouth. Either not tired now or trained myself to keep the yap shut while sleeping as the dry mouth is gone.
