I have suffered with a dry mouth for years.

Nice to see this!

As someone diagnosed sjogrens ?lupus, my eyes and mouth discomfort are not easy to bear. Such information will be invaluable to anyone suffering symptoms, not yet diagnosed, and/or, think as I did, that my work use of computers was the problem!

I wish I had complained to GP, about the symptoms, years before I did. If this knowledge was around then, I would have acted sooner. I could have got prescription meds to help and perhaps adaptations to my working practice.

Thanks Paul.
