what is sjogrens? the last few checkups i have had for my eyes the optometrist has commented that my eyes are dry?? They also seemed very dry for quite a while but it seems to have eased a bit..
are there other symptoms? I seem to have a lot of aches and pains as well and my feet seem to be the worst..i cant do a lot and today i spent about 3 hours in the kitchen creating and now I am very achy and probably will end up taking panadeine forte to be able to sleep. My hands are achy along with my back and feet. anyone else have similar symptoms? I have mentioned my achy hot feet to the doctor which are quite painful but the doctor just checked that my blood flow was good to my feet which it was and that was it and now I feel like a hypochondriac if I bring it up again. I am only 48 so still have a lot of living to do and am not ready to let pain rule my life...
