how to find primary care physician who understands sjogrens

[paperdoll]

This is wonderful to have support and share Doctors!  So wonderful happy tears!

I also believe we can call The USA Sjogren's Foundation as they keep lists of Doctor I think and I know they keep Support Group lists!

For me I ended up at a University first and they just kept giving me meds.  I remember the pain wasn't even helped by mobic.  I was suffering so much... GERD, headaches the works!!!!! Then I finally paid for a private doctor (we can get this reimbursed sometimes) and they helped me get off the excess meds because often the conflicting side effects of multiple meds can make one feel worse.  Not all Doctors are the same - we are hiring them as detectives - if they don't help or don't respect us we have to get to a place to move along to someone better!

Best of luck!!!
