Hi There,
I realize that you posted this over a year ago but am hoping you still are active on this forum. Did the hyperbaric treatment help specifically with your dry mouth? My husband is suffering greatly from this and we are looking for anything that might help.

Hello @lnelsonj, I hope you get a response about the acupuncture. I also have a very dry mouth from surgery, radiation to neck. I use Xylimelts every night as well as a cool mist ultrasonic nebulizer beside the bed. I use biotene gel or spray as needed and they make lozenges also. Keeping your hydration up is so important, and electrolytes are sometimes better than just water. what has your husband tried so far?
