Hi,
I have had fibro for a long time. My Rheumologist put me on a lot of meds and they do help but they have side effects. I have bad dry mouth and I take tablets of Xylemelts to help. I put 3 under my tongue before I go to sleep. It helps because I feel like I can't swallow since my mouth is so dry then I panic. Now I have a feeling my tongue is on fire like after eating hot pizza and the cheese burns your mouth. I don't know why that happens. Anyone out there dealing with the same issue? I'm scared because the tablets are the only thing that works. I think the mint flavor might be causing the problem but I can't go without them.
