Hey, Deb.  Thanks for sharing.  Even though it came out in 2015, many of the people on the forum may not no anything about it.  This one came out in June.  It was on the Sjogren's Foundation site.  This looks hopeful, too!

Well, I just got my genome report and I do have another gene for Sjogren's (STAT4), as well as several for RA. There's also lots of other interesting stuff in there. When I was diagnosed there was hardly any research into Sjogren's. We have really been picking up speed since then! This is too new to make it into my genome report but I can check back in for updates to see if I have it.
