@lummy Phil, I also use Xylimelts and thank you for reaching out. My dentist gave me some samples when I was diagnosed with Sjogren's Disease but now they not only keep my mouth less dry but the mint flavor disguises the bad taste between meals. My brother-in-law had radiation for throat cancer and used these also. I am so glad you are a long-term survivor!!! Is your saliva back now?

Hi,
My saliva is somewhat better now, but it does not have the same qualities that help form a bolus when eating. I have to wash down much of what I eat. I have dysphasia and with the saliva issues, my meals are an hourlong process.
Best wishes,
Phil
