Does anyone have a dry mouth? My husband suddenly got an extreme dry mouth along with a little dizziness (though I think that may have to do with his lack of appetite and lack of eating). He has it for 5 days already. I couldn't find anywhere that a dry mouth is symptom of corona. My husband thinks it's diabetes, as he's overweight. But to start out of the blue, exactly when coronavirus is going around, idk I can't imagine it is diabetes. He left a message for Dr but idk if he'll be able to get a blood test now, and he definitely needs to take the test to get his mind off his thinking it's diabetes!
So if anyone had dry mouth or heard it's connected to coronavirus, please lmk!!! It'll make him feel better

Did he take any allergy meds? These can cause dry mouth.

Omg I had a dry mouth & throat a couple of weeks ago which lasted for a good few days. I thought it was the start of the virus but bh didn't progress. I had a constant need to drink. So weird I wonder if I've had Corona. Wonder if it's connected.

Wow. Thank you guys! I'm so relieved to know others have dry mouth. Dr said over phone that it's not a symptom but I guess he didn't know...

Dry mouth could be a symptom of anxiety (which makes a lot of sense these days) or the side effect of medications even from a muscle relaxant.

Ty. He's not on any medication, and I don't believe he was overly anxious until he got this dry mouth (severely dry)

I have corona and believe to have had every symptom in the book. Now what I'm left with is nausea, dry mouth, and no sense of smell or taste.
Good luck to all going through this! It's a horrible virus and doesn't seem to be letting up too quickly.

In my experience, the dry sinuses, dry mouth, lack of sense of smell, and inability to taste were the very last symptoms to go.
Mouthwash that is particularly formulated for dry mouth will help a lot. So will a mild, warm saline rinse.
With this virus, it is imperative that you stay SUPER hydrated. Drink so much you can hardly stand it, and you need to pee every hour or so. Hot tea and soup with lots of broth at every meal.
Sports drinks are really good, so you keep your electrolytes balanced. Some flavors of Gatorade are kosher and some are not, so read the labels carefully. The fruit punch one is actually pretty good. I water it down half and half, so it's not so sweet.
