These are typical for some due to meds and not drinking enough, I drink 64 ounces most days and that is not enough to get rid of cotton/metal mouth. There are tooth pastes/mouth rinses and gels that may help. The lack of temp control/flushing/sweating is common also for many. I wish you luck and talk to your doctor.

I am right there with you. Food has no flavor anymore, so I rarely care what I eat. I miss the smell of so many things!

Thank you SableRogue. I hadn't read or heard of the cotton mouth. And i also have a flushed face much of the time and sweating when i am in a room with strangers or a restaurant and it's embarassing flushing and sweating in the company of unfamiliar faces. You have helped me, now i can cope.

I have a limited sense of smell now. This has also made food not as flavorful. I also hardly ever feel hungry and feel full quickly.

My husband hasn’t had the scense of smell or taste in a long time. Didn’t know it could be a sign of Parkinson’s.
