Its also a wonderful resource and is available from the Sjogren's Foundation.

Someone recommended a book to me called The Sjogren's Book 4th Edition. You may also like to go to the Sjogren Foundation web site. Sometimes he has a solution and other times he sends me to another specialist who may be able to help. I rely a lot on my Rheumatologist for advice and information.
#Chronic post nasal drip trial
Maybe you could try one of those? So many things are trial and error for us that I think we end up trying many different things before we find what works. For the nasal passages themselves I sometime use polysporin or vaseline for moisture, but I think that gels are also available. But I would talk to my Dr or pharmacist first because so many of them are drying. I'm on 20 mg of Reactine daily for autoimmune uticaria (hives) so that may be helping me somewhat, and the only other thing I can think of to "dry things up" would be some kind of antihistamine. (for example at work) I wonder if any of it could be allergy/sensitivity (in my case). Are you on any meds? I have sinus problems too and notice that they are worse in some environments. I am on plaquenil and it has helped some of the symptoms but definitely not all of them. I suppose because we look well, it is hard for other people to "get it." Personally I found the fist year to be hardest and now I have begun to find a new "normal". It's very frustrating when no one seems to understand. At times I have been very ill (enough to make me take to bed for weeks at a time) and I can relate to all of the symptoms that you describe. I've been diagnosed for about a year and a half, but my symptoms have been going on for years. Hi Laaz, sounds like you're having a rough time. Any input or suggestions would be of great help. I don't think I can keep on going on like this, things just keep on getting worse with the Sjorgrens. My husband is totally not interested and my grown kids think that there is nothing wrong with me. I had this over 10 years and just found out now. Is there any medication that ever helped anyone.

Please don't say nasal irrigations, I have been irrigating my nose for over 10 years and nothing helps. Is there anything that can help!! Has anyone ever taken anything that has helped with the post nasal drainage. I have dry nasal crusts inside my nose as well.
#Chronic post nasal drip skin
My skin is dry and my face and under eyes are swollen. I also have small fiber neuropathy, pressure on top of my head and I lost 20 pounds within one year.

It also got worse after I had sinus surgery and had a total ethmoidectomy, maxillary openings made larger and turbinate reductio. My question is, it seems like I can feel the drainage around my whole eye socket and then feel it run down my throat - I know it sounds strange but I do. fatigue, pain all over my joints, dry eyes. What I was wondering, does anyone have constant post nasal drainage 24/7? I also have dry lips,gums,eyes,vaginal dryness, constipation,frequent urination. Hi- I found out that I have Sjorgrens from a lip biopsy- negative blood test.
