I suggest that some people experience a short period of dry mouth (xerostomia) when they begin to feel better or begin to feel worse. It may be a transitional state. This might be an effect on the automomic nervous system. Do you also experience heart palpitations, dizziness, tremors, blurred vision, sensitivity to light (photophobia), teeth grinding, or constipation? This could happen with several, not just Lamictal.
