The muscle issues were a mystery for me. I never got a diagnosis. My brother has similar symptoms now. He’s early 50s. Autoimmune runs in my family….RA, type 1 diabetes, Lupus, etc. it’s rampant.
For my muscles now (no longer weak and stiff like years ago) , I exercise daily and rely on PT, dry needling, therapeutic touch. And keep vitamin levels up. B12 and D3 with supplements, due to deficiency.
Ref. The dry eye. I can’t use the prescription drops. Wish i could. They irritate my eyes. There’s a new med in the form of nasal spray for dry eye. I haven’t tried it yet.

I use the nasal spray tyrvaya. (I think that’s how you spell it) It has actually helped a lot.

Thankyou.It is definitely a mystery diagnosis.No one knows.We have tons of Lupus on both sides of the Family.It took them 20 years to diagnose my mom.She has severe headaches though,but I know Lupus can cause so many different symptoms.I am taking B12,B6 and D for deficiency.The prescription eye drops I got definitely hurt my eyes. I actually think the drops are making them dryer.Thankyou for suggesting the nasal spray.I will have to look into that.
