    Went to see my Rheumy today told to prepare for my next infusion of
    Rituximabb sent for blood tests. He says Rituximab should not affect my
    breathing. But I told him I would waite until I see the lung specialist before I decide what to do.

    Now your not going to believe this, you know that list of medical problems I have
    Well it got bigger today, I could hardly believe it and I’m glad Mrs C was with me, today he said he thinks I have Sjogren's Syndrome. Having just read up on it I think the same but why have they taken this long to discover it as my symptoms have been the same for a couple of years.
    I am keeping my chin up, just in a bit of a daze its like i'm collecting these things, At the moment i just want my mask so that i can at least try to get a good nights sleep. I believe if i start sleeping ok It will make me feel better and take away some of the aches and pains.

    Oh dear Colin, not another thing to add to the list :shock:

    Not content with everything else, you've now added a Scandinavian illness too ( It's named after Swedish ophthalmologist Henrik Sjögren ) I think you would be an excellent candidate for medical students to study; if they could diagnose all your medical problems, they would pass all their exams with flying colours. But you could also teach them how it's possible for a patient to stay positive in the face of so many illnesses. :D

    I hope that the mask is working well for you, and that you are getting more sleep.
