great article...I wish some of those studies would end up being treatments for SJS!  I work in clinical studies in Ophthalmology and I know how long many of them take!!  If they could just come up with something to end the inflammation in eyes and mouth......it would help a lot of us to cope with some of the other SJS gifts if we weren't always having to treat our eyes and mouth.  I will pray hard!
Dx#1:  dx changed to Sicca Syndrome + UCTD (how wonderful)
