I dont personally have that problem but I do sometimes find myself swollowing continually because my mouth and throat are so dry.

Im sure I have read somewhere though of someone having the same problem, maybe even on here, my memory is terrible!

Yes this has been happening to me a lot just recently thank goodness someone else has it and yes my memory is so bad too I sometimes find myself sitting with my several packs of pills in my hand not knowing if Ive just taken one or not!!

This can be a sign of something like reflux or dry mouth can be a side effect from medications or a sign of another condition, such as allergies or Sjogrens Syndrome.
