Response from Dr. Reznik
 The symptoms you are experiencing in your mouth are very much in line with what one would see with a severe case of xerostomia or dry mouth. If, as your physician noted, that your urine is concentrated as well, I would suggest that you follow his/her advice and drink more fluids. Xerostomia, although often seen with HIV infection, is by no means diagnostic of this infection. I hope this helps! DR |
