Hello kenyalama. My name is Yolanda and I have dry mouth as well and a dry and bloody/stuffy nose everyday. I use the TheraBreath Dry Mouth lozenges. They have a nice flavor and I have one or two before bed while I'm watching the night news. Honestly though, I still wake up at night with a dry mouth after being able to sleep more than three hours...... I know the frustration you must be having with the dry mouth (I keep a bottle of water by my bedside as well)..... I have my grandchildren too but like you, I can't go out and enjoy them AND THE SUN. I've got an immune skin thing that attacks myself as if it were bad. I have Bullous Pemphigoid. Not as bad as the pictures show because I try my hardest to stay on top of this stupid disease. Like you too, I try not to be blue and the feeling of being alone in this fight for the past year and a half. It's funny but I just received my third dose of Moderna on the 13th and I feel so happy. I got a real reaction with a mild fever! I know it sounds funny but my first two gave me no reactions whatsoever - proof was in my latest blood tests showing no antibodies detected (probably and most likely from me taking prednisone for my blisters....). Well my friend, I hope this little letter lets you know you're not alone in this stupid fight (AND DURING A PANDEMIC TOO)! They weren't kidding when they said 'we're in this together'....

Stay safe and stay well,

Con Cariño, Yolanda

Thank you for your response Yolanda!
Except for the losengez I do what you do. Water on night stand and all. Not to much more to be done. I don’t comment about this with anyone because people woukd never understand that dryness could cause so much suffering and like so many of us we deal with so much more.
And yes we will keep our heads up dear new friend
Wishing you a more hydrated night tonight with less interruptions
