Almost a year now

It's been almost a year since I started this denture process. I haven't had them relined yet. I wanted to see if it was going to be necessary. 2 months after getting them I knew it was going to be necessary because I still lisp. My mouth has been extremely dry no matter what lozenges I use and the water I drink. I cannot bite down on anything like a sandwich or pasta without the bottoms popping. Even when I use adhesive. I cannot even get my tongue over the bottom teeth completely or touch the top teeth all the way. The bottoms cover my gleeker and I can't gleeker to keep my mouth moist. Oh don't get me started on what I thought were cold sores in the corners. Oh the dry ass yet sticky coating on my top teeth causes my upper lip sometimes (a lot of times) sticks to my top denture. Mid sentence too. I look like I have a hair lip when it happens. The splitting of the corners of my mouth is from that. 5/22 is my appointment for these to be fixed. I paid like 6K and wanted to make sure that I didn't have them over adjusted so hopefully it gets fixed Friday. Anyone have any suggestions? Oh I did finally find a way to get the adhesive off and that's with a dry wash cloth. The adhesive with the scope makes your mouth even drier. Fwiw. For me anyway.
