I wake up every morning with a really dry mouth. It always tastes awful and I feel like Ive been gagged. I brush my teeth but my mouth always tastes awful because of it.

    Yeah, that happens to me. I'm a mouth breather so I sleep with my mouth open. It tastes like shit when I wake up. Yuck. Try to swish some water around your mouth right after you wake up. Also, I don't think dry mouth is a symptom if diabeetus.

    It can be the result of many brands of medication.
    prescription or not.snoring.Don't use mouthwash,
    containing alcohol it makes it worse.

    Everyone has it to a degree as hormone levels
    are higher in the morning .hence dry mouth/breath.

    Normal :)

    When it happens to me, I get a sore throat. I hate it when it happens! Luckily this happens to me very rarely.

    Do you snore?
    That also makes a dry mouth in many cases.

      No from what I know I don't snore. I do drool sometimes.
