@StillFuntoShop I am sorry about your MS diagnosis. That is a tough disease to deal with. I once went around to the area schools and presented a program about MS. My friend has it and she is the one that got me involved. Hang in there!

I tested high for the antibodies for this about 10 years ago. I always have dry eyes and mouth.

My sister has Sjogren's. I have never discussed it with my doctor. I also have dry eyes & dry mouth. I hate when my eyes feel like they have sand in them when they are so dry.

There is a genetic component...are you considering testing for Sjogren's? The dry eyes are so annoying. I can no longer wear my contacts and even with drops my vision is very blurry by the end of the day. Makes reading at night difficult or impossible. How is your sister doing?

I'm pretty sure I have. Mom has it along with RA and Lupus. Bloodwork is negative though. Had one doc tell me there is pseudo autoimmune (doesn't show up in bloodwork) but then he said he didn't think I had that 😳😳😡
Very frustrating!! I have every symptom.

A new book, just out 2016, entitled "The Autoimmune Connection" discusses Sjogren's Disease in detail, along with many other autoimmune diseases. We have discussed on this BB in both "Among Friends" and "Wellness." The title of the posts is "Autoimmune Disease Sufferers." It is geared toward women and is the most current information through March 2016. I bought mine at Amazon, others have downloaded it on Kindle.
