Poistive for Early SJorgren's Biomarkers
Hi en bloc. I still struggle with my neuropathy and lung conditions. Sadly, from the time neeve pain manifested, my body has "attracted" other health issues. My question right now is - what is the normal protocol for treatment (or management) if you only have the early biomarkers for the SS. I have 2 out 3 positive biomarkers. I do not know which biomarkers are because it was relayed to me by my eye doctor. She said that rheumatologists will not treat me unless i have positive SSA/SSB. I have been suffering for dry eyes and mouth for 6 years and my autoimmune panel including the SSA/SSB were always negative. I wish i can do away with the Plaquenil (i suspect this is the one that triggered my neuropathy) and the steroid (as this is bad for my NTM).
Thank you in advance for your inputs.
