Hello everyone

I have been struggling with some non descript symptoms such as dry eyes, dry mouth, pain in joins, itchy skin, tiredness etc. With their usual efficiency local surgery had been useless until today with a new temporary Dr who thinks i have sjogren's and has refered me to rheumatologist.

Has anyone been diagnosed with this and could give me some tips?

Thanks

Sylvie

If you put Sjogrens in the search on here, there are quite a few posts with quite a lot of info. In particular from the Australian Sjogrens community. Hope you find the info you need.
