Now the new Rheum says I have SICCA symptoms
URRRR. My visit with the 2nd Rheumatologists says I have SICCA symptoms. URRRRRRR. Another diagnosis, but NOR RELIEF!!!!!!!! Why don't they just run the TPO and TG antibodies? Why don't they run pictures(ultrasound) on my neck??? WHY WHY WHY???? I am so depressed. I deffinetly got NO WHERE today. :(
It is Sjorgens w/o the blood results to confirm it. When I told him (2ndRheum) about my difficult swallowing, and bump on my neck. He said immediatly that it was just a lymph node and the difficulty swallowing is due to the SICCA which makes you very dry. It is an immune disorder that attacks your lacrimal glands and tear glands. In my opinion-I may have some of the SICCA symptoms(the difficulty swallowing)but that is it!!!!! URRRR. My heart and body is telling me that even if I have this SICCA, IT IS NOT WHAT IS CAUSING SO MUCH OF MY PROBLEMS!!!!!! URRR.......Any input?
