Hi,
your symptoms suggest decreased or no mucous / salivary gland secretion. Need further evaluation to find the cause. Get examined by your doctor once and to rule out sjogren syndrome.
The dry nose and smell perception in the absence of any smell with other symptoms suggests atrophy changes. Get examined once and for time being put nasal drops to both nostrils 5 times a day.
Hope this helps you.
Regards
