Dry mouth: Consider sucking on sugarless lemon drop to stimulate saliva. Make sure that you brush regularly since lack of saliva may lead to dental decay and gum disease. There are also rx drugs to stimulate saliva production if the above measures failed. If you have dry eyes also, then you may have what is called sicca syndrome.

See ENT: I recommend you see and ear, nose and throat doctor to get your sinuses checked and your throat looked at. Also mention your thick saliva - have him check your parotid glands which are just in front of your ears.
