OHHHHHHHHHHHHHH Kaykwiltz good for you! In THIS day and age we have to take more than responsibility exploring and educating ourselves. Here is an example of what happened to my mother nearly 15 years ago. She was complaining of her eyes getting so crusty that she would have to wash them several times a day. They even stuck together at night. She was always drinking water because of her thirst. When she went to the doctor, they told her to drink more but they sai it was all a part of growing older.
After months of this, my niece did some research on the internet of all the symptoms Mom had. It came up with Sjogrens Disease. Mom took that diagnosis to the doctor and he said "huh - that must be it" After HIS research, the diagnosis was confirmed. - Like I said we all have to do our research
