Hi adamking,
     Sorry to hear about your diagnoses, or should I say lack of diagnoses. Im pretty sure I couldnt get the Sjo test over here. Im only dealing with dry eyes and mouth at the moment so Im thinking myself lucky, but the scary thing is you never know when or if the next problems going to show up. My main concern at the moment is getting to see a Sjogrens specialist over here(if my rheumy will refer me). If not I have to go to another hospital to get a referral and that means more of the same tests, more money.

Sorry to hear about your surgery, it seems the problems tend to pile up dont they. Ive heard a lot of males tend to have a lot of negative tests? biopsy and blood work.
I`m still learning about T cells but Id love to know what is causing my dryness.
