Thought it was MS but maybe Sjogren's now:)

Hi All,
I have had autoimmune problems for 4 years now, they thought I might have MS due to multiple brain lesions, bilateral TN, positive LP. But just saw my specialist in Dallas, and he now feels since no progression of brain lesions and have had so much joint and muscle pain, +ANA, Gerd, espohageal spasms,mild dry eyes and sometimes extreme dry mouth,  peripheral neuroapathy in hands and feet, , extreme fatigue especially in this Texas Heat. so now he says maybe Sjogrens even though I have always tested 'negative' on Sjorgren antibody tests yearly with rheumy. But guess what did lip biopsy and had a focus score of 3. So I think it says most likely Sjogren's. Do you know if this is the proper group to get info and help anyone??? Thanks for any input:)
Amers

Mycoplasma bacterial infection possibly, it can't be overlooked.  Go to www.IMMED.org for information about Autoimmune illnesses caused by infectious Mycoplasmas.  These bacteria can mimmic MS, Lupus, Fibro, ALS, Hashimotos, Sjorgrens, etc.  every symptom is right down that alley.
