It is a post to be read many times. Very interesting and useful

I personally can’t tolerate a massage in my legs or back. It causes me to experience terrible pain. I cannot have my fingers stretched as manicure people do either My knuckles hurt so much that the first time they gave me that massage I screamed since I was not aware it would cause so much pain in my knuckles. I now ask to skip the massage. I used to LOVE getting massages. Used to get them with my daughter as special treats
What I do enjoy is meditation with a pretty good App : Inside Timer
Thank you for the good info
I also experience severe dryness in mouth, nose and eyes but I have positive aSS antibodies without anti SSA so they can’t “ call “ it Sjogren’s but I do suffer the symptoms
I carry lip balm and eye drops in my purses and keep them on my night stand to use them many Tim’s a day
Systain with no preservatives and Burst Bee extra moist

Hello @kenyalama, there are many Sjogren’s sufferers who are SSA positive. Sjogren’s Advocate provides a lot of information geared toward patients and providers - https://www.sjogrensadvocate.com/post/do-you-have-antibodies-on-your-blood-test

I have Sjogren’s caused peripheral neuropathy, intense back pains, and other muscle and joint pain, along with other symptoms.
