Do you have any other autoimmune conditions besides Sjögren's? Which ones? Which were you diagnosed with first? Share your experience with these comorbidities with other community members!

  1. I have Systemic Lupus Erethamatosis and I also have Mitonia and I also have Inflammatory Bowel Diseases type Ulserarive Colitis, My Rheumatologist told me The SLE was caused by the Sjogrens Disease as well as the IBD and The Mitonia, Im now on Naltrexone and it covers all my autoimmune diseases and my swelling is down a lot. And its affordable although insurance Won't cover a mixed med its under 40. Makes me happy last med I was on was Bynlysta it is 7500 a month for 4 shots that I self administered 1 time a week. And hardly any insurance Will cover.

  2. I have been dealing with PD since 2009, this is the first time heard of Sjogren's Disease. I have serious balance problems, brain fog and memory trouble. Could I also have Sjogrens and could you reccomend treatments to help me cope? I am taking rytary. sinemet, Clonazepam and under the care of a movement disorder and neurologist and a rhematologist for RA.

  3. I
    Have Sjogrens and multiple myeloma

  4. I started out with fibromyalgia around the age of 12 or 13 but of course back then it was called Rheumatism or Childhood Arthritis. Sometime in my teens I had caught Mono which turned into the Chronic Epstein-Barr virus which I still have to this day. I've been tested for MS 3 times in my life but thankfully don't have, but I do have Meniere's Disease, the Chronic Epstein-Barr above, severe osteoarthritis, asthma, fibro, and just diagnosed with Sjogren's Disease. There are a couple more but can't think of them at the moment. My biggest issue is the pain.

    1. I should have said I'm 71, soon to be 72. I also have Irritable Bowel Syndrome and thyroid issues.

    2. , it is so overwhelming that immune system disorders come together in such great numbers! Has the doctor been able to help with pain at all? - Warmly, Donna (Team Member)
