Dry Mouth, Drinking Water Constantly, Diagnosed Celiac Disease. Reason?
I struggle with a continuous problem of dry mouth and am constantly drinking water. I have tried sugar free gum and sucking on hard candy but my mouth goes dry again, even while doing that. I have been diagnosed with celiac disease and I don't know if that has anything to do with it. Please give me some idea of what's going on...

Celiac disease is a disease of intolerence to dietary wheat and manifests with chronic diarrhea,abdominal distension,musclewasting,loss of appetite with foul,greasy and bulky stools,which is not your problem.The dry mouth may be solved with ginger with salt chewing in the early morningalong with frequent small sips of water.
