I do and exactly like you say, as if you've been in water too long. I also drink plenty of water and other liquids throughout the day.

Hi...If you haven't done so, see a rheumatologist and ask to be tested (bloodwork) for scleroderma (CREST) . Sjogrens is one of the syndromes that falls under it. Seems to be among the popular tag-a-longs for those with PBC. Also, drinking plain water doesn't help with chronic dehydration. You'll need to also drink water with electrolytes, but limit flavored waters w/sugar added. For quick fixes, there's Gatorade. There are also tablets/powders that can be added to plain water; found at sports stores, vitamin shops, and drugstores.
