I have dry eyes and mouth. Common for lupus and very common with Sj. syndrome.
I take Ubiquinal. This seems to have helped with that...especially dry mouth. I use preservative free eye drops daily and this is also of great help.

I'm certain the high B6 is from supplements. I didn't pay enough attention to some of the items I was taking. Even my protein powder has B6 in it. I have discontinued all of them and will retest in 6 weeks.
I do not have the classic SJ symptoms. I don't think that is an issue for me.
I was more concerned with my low levels on the Lupus blood work. I have a close blood related relative that is seriously ill with Lupus, she's only 30. Breaks my heart what she goes through.
