I am wondering if someone can help. I am being investigated for Sjorgrens and today I had tear test however was in normal range. I have to go for lip biopsy and ultrasound on my saliva glands. My question is has anyone had normal tear test but been diagnosed with sjorgrens

Hi there, I have been told that I did meet the test for Sjogrens but yet the dr told me it didn't prove I had it. Yet, since that time, I have teeth that all may have to come out when I had strong teeth all my life. I have a bad skin problem which I have never had before and yet still the GP is not interested. What does it take for a Doctor in Australia to be interested enough to treat this seriously?
