Does anyone else have Sjorgren's? Have dry eyes (partic right eye), dry mouth. Feel constantly tired and joints ache. Rheumatologist says I have this plus RA. Have been put on sulfasalazine but not sure if this is for RA or sjorgrens. Would be interesting to contact anyone else who has this.

    Hi ellerd pleased to meet you, I have not had a definite diagnosis yet from my rheumy but my neurologist is positive I have sjogrens so will have to wait till December till I see rhumy again, she is sitting on the fence as all my tests have come back borderline positive even the lip biopsy I had done, I am afraid I cant help you with the meds as it is OA I have. if you repost this on LWA more people will see it I think there are a few people that have sjogrens, good luck hope to see you around ..............Marie x
