Title: Sjogren's Syndrome Foundation National Patient Conference
Post by: Annj5 on April 03, 2008, 08:12:37 PM
I am so excited to attend this conference next week in Phoenix, AZ. Is anyone else attending? The theme for this conference is "Knowledge is the Key".

Some of the topics for speakers include: Nurse-patient relationships, Pulmonary Complications, Hormones and Estrogen RT, Dry Mouth and SJS, Treatment of Dry Eye, Fibromyalgia, Sjogren's from a Traditional and Non-Trad approach, Thyroiditis, Research update, and Brain Fog.

I will be taking my laptop along and for those interested, I will try to post notes from the sessions that I am able to attend. I will post the notes on my blog:http://reasonablywell-julia.blogspot.com/

I would love to be able to meet anyone from this forum who is attending!

Julia aka Annj5

Hi Julia:

I had been hoping to attend (my son lives in Phoenix/Scottsdale) but something else came up for that weekend instead. I'll be real interested in what you learn. There looked like some interesting topics, and some different speakers as well.
