Hello MissRain and Welcome to NeuroTalk!

I can relate to the autoimmune stuff - I am currently diagnosed with UCTD (undifferentiated connective tissue disease), Fibromyalgia, Sicca syndrome (a cousin to sjogrens), Raynauds, etc, etc, etc...

I noticed that you live in New England. I also live in New England. Have you had a hard time finding a good Rheumatologist? In my area there are only a few Rheumy's (and only one takes my insurance) and they are OK but they have not been great - but I don't have any other options without traveling to a major city (which is too far away for me). My primary care doctor is actually better than my rheumy at helping me manage my symptoms, so at least I have one decent doctor.

Anyway, I just wanted to say hello welcome you to the forum.

Liz
