Does any one else have Sjogrens as well as COPD? I have been reading about the complications that can arrise between the two conditions.

There is information out there about these two conditions but neither my GP or Consultant know about it.

Phone the BLF Helpline. 03000 030 555 Mon-Fri 9am 5pm. Their nurses are very helpful.

Sjogrens started with me approx 10 yr ago and I was told that I had COPD also although that diagnosis has recently been changed to Bronchiectasis.

I've never heard Sjogrens and COPD linked before so best to ask the experts, if its out there they'll know it.

All the Best

thank you delilah, I think that I have gotten confused (not for the first time)...I have been diagnosed with COPD but now am doubting that diagnoisis and beginning to think that what I am experiencing may be Sjogrens related. I just have to find an expert to help, and that is the challenge. Hope you are well. jeannie
