Does anyone have Sjogren's Syndrome? If so, how difficult was it to get diagnosed? What symptoms led to the diagnosis?

No, but I have sle-lupus. I'm now 59 and my social life is fairly over now due to extreme weakness. I understand what you're going thru. you have my good wishes coming your way!

I think there's at least one other person who mentioned Sjogren's as a diagnosis. I know a little about it, but my autoimmune disorders are Celiac, Raynaud's, and Lupus.

I do not but MANY fellow Zebras (Ehlers Danlos ) have it...actually all of the above. Two of my kids have Raynauds along with the EDS.

Can't say I know what that is.

It messes with your "moisture" systems; eyes, nose, skin, mouth. Kinda dries you out, amongst other things.

@Alimacbean my inmune disorter (polydermatomyositis) does that too, amount a list of other things. I'm yhe Queen of eyedrops, creams, oils, etc. I also drink a lot of coconut water or just clean water.

@Basilisa01 I had to look that one up. So sorry. I am going to an integrative doctor next week who can hopefully get to the bottom of this mess.

@Alimacbean Thank you for the info, appreciated. Hope you can find some relief.
