Hi to all,

I'm new here, but no stranger to Sjogrens - I've had it for about 10 years.....I've also been diagnosed with fibromyalgia and an and adrenal illness. I'm from the UK. I have saliva substitute sprays, and a hydrating eye spray if I need that. I have dry skin as well so I'm prescribed E45. I'm photophobic...diagnosed by an optician, had the schrimers test and saliva test. Anyway that's enough about me. How are you all? It's good to be part of a group that understands.

I hope that you are having a great day, will chat later, I have to go out now and pay bills, lucky me lol :)
