Hi, don't worry about ur question, u can ask anything u like on here! :-)

Maybe a stiff jaw, which can be caused by fibro..

might be that because ur jaw's stiff i morning u can't do as much with ur mouth as usual?

Or otherwise a dry mouth maybe?

These are my thoughts anyway, don't know if any use!

take care and hope it improves,

starbys :-)

Hi bluebell10

I am so sorry to read that you are suffering with this issue, and as Starbys says it could be a dry mouth issue as many of the Fibro medications such as Gabapentin and Pregabalin can cause this.

I want to wish you all the best of luck with finding the answers that you are looking for.

Take care
