Default Seeing the Rheumatologist tomorrow

Hi all,

I found out today that I'll be seeing the rheumatologist tomorrow, since there was a cancellation. I really don't know what to push for, what to ask for, which avenue to explore, especially if I get a lazy or unconcerned rheumatologist. I am seeing him for Sjogren's, but obviously that's not all he treats. So there's Sjogren's and that might lead to a lip biopsy, but there are other possibilities. At this point, a year in, I'm almost certain there is some inflammatory, autoimmune cause of my SFN and various other symptoms that I've described extensively on here. But I don't know what, and if we have a category for it yet. I'm really not sure what testing I could do that I already haven't done. I suppose I'm just asking if anyone has any suggestions, if you know my story. Thank you in advance.
