Thanks - yes I'm absolutely aware of this (numb around eyes and tinnitus are a great incentive) - hope she won't soft soap me but if not the new rheumatologist will hopefully put her right. I will phone the helpline person from the British Sjogrens Syndrome Association and get names of SS specialists if I feel this problem is not going to be properly addressed.
