Sjogrens and dysautononia and mast cell activation

Posted by debbieguk @debbieguk, Feb 11 5:47am

Hi

Does anyone have the three conditions I have.

The only place i have seen these grouped together is by the Neurologist at Mayo clinic so I'm so happy as this explains my presentation totally.

However no one UK side sees these correlations so it's tricky to get help for the myriad of symptoms across my whole body

Wondering how you manage the nerve pain and any treatments you found worked for excess sweating ..

Which tests are needed for small nerve fibre issues I'm concerned re progression ie permanent damage vs reversible inflammation

Pots and fatigue

@debbieguk Good morning or maybe it’s evening for you! Welcome to Mayo Clinic Connect. We’re a large group of caregivers and patients who all work together to help everyone reach their best outcomes. Here are 2 discussions to get you going. And there are lots more!
https://connect.mayoclinic.org/discussion/living-with-neuropathy-welcome-to-the-group/&
https://connect.mayoclinic.org/discussion/mast-cell-activation/
I found these discussion groups that you may want to look at and ask questions.
Since you went to Mayo, you must have access to their portal where you can ask questions. Did the doctors at Mayo Clinic give you a plan of care to share with your doctors in England?
Also, there is a branch of Mayo Clinic in London.

Please look through the discussions and ask all your questions!

Facebook has several groups that may be of help- mast cell disorders forum has over 38000 members… there are other groups…just run a search on fb and you will find them…there is even one for POTS! There are lots of members in the UK. You may find info on medical resources in the UK.
Per these groups, Mayo Clinic has turned away MCAS patients, but will see mastocytosis patients,
https://www.mastattack.org/ Is also an excellent website…
Any chance you r taking B6 supplement that maybe causing neuropathy…

Hi

Yes I am already on many groups just wanted to speak with others with the same presentation ...

Sjogrens and mcas causes small nerve fibre neuropathy. My B levels are normal and it's not diabetes . I'm looking for information really from those who have the same conditions to ideally share. I already know what I have.
