Cannot Regulate Body Temperature

Not sure about the Lupus connection but I do have hard earned info about Sjogren's. I do know that Sjogren's can take out the small fibers that effect the long fibers that are the autonomic nervous system that are your temperature controls. They also tell the body where it is in relation to every else which effects your balance, which is what I have. Took us awhile to figure it out and I still have balance problems. So there you have it in a nutshell.

Great info! I have Sjogren’s, don’t sweat, and get overly hot or cold easily. Didn’t realize my balance problem was also related to ANS. Organizing my symptoms helps me cope.
I blamed bad balance on numb feet, my AC1 is normal. This weekend my feet hurt a lot. Last night I realized I don’t have “meat” on the bottom of my feet. 😵‍💫Sending a message to my internist, thankfully seeing my rheumatologist on Wednesday.

May I ask what tests they did to determine this.
