how long does it take after not taking medicine for hyperthyroidism for thyroid storm to occur?

It depends: It may never happen, or happen in a day. Noncompliance will ruin your health — hyperthyroidism is awful even before the storm, not the least because people will take it for mental illness.

Mouth breathing: You may breath through your mouth while you sleep, which dries out your mouth and throat. With a dry mouth, certain bacteria can proliferate which causes an odor. Try brushing your tongue as well as your teeth, and when you use mouth rinse, gargle it into the back of your throat as well.
