I have had Sjogrens Syndrome for the last 15 years. I also have Fibromylagia and Rehmatoid Arthritis as well! It can also make a Woman's lady area between her legs. Not sure if I can say that area on this platform. 😢 Just being honest!
Thanks so much for this wonderful video!

What tests should I ask my primary doctor to run to get a full diagnosis

[@Xanaduum]

How do I get a GP to take me seriously when I bring up the possibility of having Sjogrens. I have all of the symptoms.

[@couturecreative]

Hi, I first consulted with my dentist, because I wanted to verify why my mouth mucus membrane had changed : dryer and thicker.
After doing her examination, panoramic rx to check state of sone glands.
She asked me many questions.
She is to contact my GP for more tests.
I am now to see my GP.
Sjogren if that is the case will be diagnosed confirmed.
Good luck to you.
Maybe this could be a way through to your doctor.

Get a blood test and tell them you need a referral for this disease so when your ESR is high they will take you serious where are you based exactly)

[@Xanaduum]

@@liyanibernier5720 The UK, I'm just very used to being dismissed by doctors here. When I was living in Vietnam, it was actually easier to get seen to.

[@Zoleankico4267]

I’ve read, (because I have poor luck with doctors too), if you ask your doctor, “what does Sjorgrens, (or whatever), look like?” Then the ball is in their court to be “in charge”, but then you can say yes or no, to the symptoms THEY describe. I’ve found part of the problems I’ve had with health professionals, is that they don’t like it when we research on our own, or “self diagnose”. Lots of ego involved, so this idea might help… I hope you find someone who will listen and take you seriously.

I was recently diagnosed with Sjorgens. My rheumatologist stressed that it’s not recommended to have a baby and if think about it I need to have a consult before. Do you have any videos regarding pregnancy with Sjorgens?
