Sjögren’s Syndrome: how do you manage the symptoms?

Not to alarm you but Sjorgens has been proven to be a precursor to cancer. I was diagnosed with Sjorgens 12 yrs ago. Four yrs ago I was diagnosed with St 4 Lymphoma. My son is a Dr. of Internal Medicine and he told me when Sjorgens is diagnosed , he automatically does a cancer panel now. I am finally in remission but ask your Dr. about this. ❤️

in reply to @char8972 Thank you for this information. Just walking outside these days exposes one to just about any thing "awful." A cancer panel? What is that? I am sorry about your lymphoma. What kind do you have?

So very sorry to hear about your Lymphoma. People with Sjogren's are at extra risk of getting it...glad you're on the mend. I'm a breast cancer survivor which means my body already likes to have cancer (ha ha)....hopefully not the addition of Lymphoma. It's something to be mindful of and make sure doctors are on alert. My rheumatologists mentioned it and are actively checking for any signs. Hugs and continued remission for you!
