The annual Sjogren's Syndrome National Patient Conference is coming up on April 3rd and 4th in Mississauga, Ontario, Canada.
You can find more about it on the website www.sjogrenscanada.org
It is really great to get together with others who have the same problem, and to get access to doctors and hear the talks and ask questions. I am going to be a volunteer helper again and demonstrate Tranquil Eyes. I'll do my best. One year it was the Neil Med sinus rinse I demonstrated - I could not believe how easy it was to use.
These will be the topics
Six presentations PLUS (back by popular demand):
ONE HOUR opportunity to ask the experts YOUR specific questions!

Thanks so much for letting us know, Annette, I really wish I could go, but it's just not possible.
I'm looking forward to your report!
Thanks Annette!
It sounds like a great time with a lot of information to be had.....I'll be looking forward to hearing how it went for you and what you learned!
Hi Annette, do you know if this Conference can be viewed online?
Thanks, Sandra
No it will not be viewable online. I can bring it up and see what the prospects are for the future. I would expect to see something on the website about it after the fact but the handouts in the past have been printed.
I went to one conference where anyone who wanted could get the info on a memory stick. The think I like the most is talking to all of the people and the doctors. It is imminent now.
