@elmay @becsbuddy - during the years when I had autoimmune gastrointestinal inflammation I started having very dry mouth and eyes. I was tested a couple of times for SS but negative. It was still thought of as a SS autoimmune disease. I would have red bumps inside lips and on palate, tender salivary glands. After finishing my immunosuppressive treatment, the symptoms disappeared.
However, I ended up with enamel damage to my front teeth, they became almost see- through. Anyone else had a problem with the teeth?

@astaingegerdm Your tooth enamel was damaged by your immunosuppressive treatment? Are they still strong? What does your dentist say? I’ve been on prednisone for 2 years and CellCept and now rituxan. No problems so far. Are you sure medications caused the problem?

What is meant by autoimmune gastrointestinal inflammation? How is that diagnosed. I sure have GI issues.
