Sjogren’s Syndrome – Introduce yourself and meet others

@colleenyoung I really am suffering with thick mucous in my mouth, especially at night. I take Cevimeline 3 times per day. It is still awful. I have read that Plaquenil doesn't really help with dry mouth and thick stuff in my mouth. Does anyone have anything good?

@sheritaylor - I don't have Sjogren's but do have dry mouth at night and sometimes the thick mucous, mostly due to using a CPAP. I've found Biotene mouthwash at night helps me some.

@sheritaylor Welcome to Mayo Clinic Connect! The members will see your question in the morning, but, in the meantime I just wanted to welcome you and tell you that you’ve really come to the right place!
Is Sjögren’s syndrome a new diagnosis for you? I’m sure everyone here can help you with it. I, too, have very thick mucous in my mouth, especially at night. I find that OTC allergy pills really help. You might ask your doctor about them and see what they recommend.
