What websites do you find useful? Do you have a good rheumatologist? How do you manage your symptoms? Do you take prescription medications? When were you diagnosed with Sjogren's?

Mom has it, found out last year. we hadn't heard of it before. Cream for a skin thing, eye surgery for her droopy lids, effixor for tremors, and i'll get more info for you when she gets home.... can be genetic

Sjogren's can be hereditary, yes. I'm assuming she had the blood test done for it?

She had a whole bunch of tests done including blood work, cardio stuff... they were checking for several things.... I'm not sure what lines went to which things. I know she is also on breathing treatments and several pills.....

Tam, the symptoms you're describing aren't Sjogren's at all, so I'm just wondering. Is she doing ok?
