Sjogren's, Hashimoto's and Thyroid Dysfunction: Got questions

Thank you Colleen. Any input is welcome. What I have a difficult time with is when doctor wants me to sit during the apt. I have sciatic problems on and off so it’s difficult to sit. I think he just wants to tower over me. I believe he thinks it’s a sign of respect to sit. It bothers him when I stand.

@mfratt Have you explained, to the doctor, that it’s very painful to sit and that you prefer to stand? I’m sure she would be understanding!

There are stretches for sciatica! Pretty much has kept it at bay - I went to PT, but online, Dr Jo and Two Guys have good you tube videos. My mom used to carry a pillow with her everywhere.
