@lgreg That is very encouraging. For the dry eyes my Ophthalmologist placed " Punctual Plugs"
in the eyes. Helped a lot. Google to get info.

@harryboy7 and your dry eyes were from autoimmune illness? I had that within the first years of Sjogrens Disease. It didn't work at all. Maybe I had a rookie doctor?! No, I was told that if there was damage to the glands in the eyelids, punctal plugs weren't going to help. There wasn't any moisture to keep in with the plugs. Glad to hear they helped somebody.

@harryboy7 I've started using Biticon mouth wash it don't completely stop it but it's worked very well with me I use it 2x daily and it's been manageable. I know dry mouth is horrible and embarrassing I hate talking to people it's weird feeling. But I use the dry mouth mouth wash works pretty well. Kinda pricy but worth it!!! Good luck
