"When my sugarĀ  goes up my mouth gets real dry."

Ah Ha!  I thought my extremely dry mouth was due to some other meds I take at 
night!  I missed some of this  conversation - and I just made my first CS.  I 
was very surprised at how easy it was.  My blood sugar averages  200+  in the 
mornings or more because I am a sugar (ok, chocolate) addict still but have 
stopped drinking pop at least! Replaced it with water  - guess I could add a 
little CS to the water everyday!
 I am willing to try anything to avoid taking Metformin or other meds for 
diabeties so any information is welcomed!  My husband is diabetic too, taking 
Metformin and other meds because he has edema  from his kidneys not working.
CS in the water tommorrow!!
