Suggest Remedy For Profuse Lacrimation During Eating And Drinking

dear sir, i have one question.since i was in puberty (now I am 38years old) i noticed that my eyes are tearing during eating and drinking.i read in the net net that it could be so called crocodile tears syndrome or Bogorad's syndrome but i didn't have bell's palsy or anything similar.i am wondering now, can it be something else or is it that crocodile tears syndrome?Is there any cure for this condition,where to go for help?
