[QUOTE="trinityroyal, post: 553087, member: 3907"] Nomad, I'm so sorry you had to face such an ordeal. I hope your pain and fever subside. Sjogren's Syndrome can occur as a result of having lupus, and onset in women is often around "menopausal age". Symptoms include dry mouth, dry eyes, and problems with the body's mucous membranes. The dry mouth can cause dental issues, and can exacerbate existing dental problems, which might explain why you had such a terrible time with the root canal etc. There are treatments for the symptoms (eye drops, mouth rinse, flouride treatments to help prevent cavity development, and other items). Now that you have a diagnosis, it might be worth a chat with your doctor to see what symptoms can be addressed immediately to make you feel better, and a reasonable plan for long-term care. [/QUOTE]
