yes I do, very much, especially at night. I don't know what causes it but sometimes it is so bad my tongue feels glued to the roof of my mouth.  Other times it is not so bad. I try to keep hydrated and I always have water beside  my bed.  I am a mouth breather at night so I don't think that helps.

Me too! I get a foul taste in my mouth too which I hate, especially just before a period.

Who'd be a woman!

Sparky do you also have dry eyes?  If so have you been checked for Sjogren's syndrome? It's autoimmune and its rare but I was checked as I have other autoimmune factors going on.

I get vile tastes in my mouth unrelated to teeth, us use or any known infection. Quite often coupled with nausea - the only other time I had this was in early pregnancy so guessing it is hormonal.
