Wow, Dac, that's amazing! Thanks for the info and link. I'll check it out. Your daughter sounds like an amazing little girl and you must be proud of her and all you have done, not just for her but for others.
I'm starting to feel a lot better now, a week or two later. I knew I would but it was a terrible feeling. I know now how it feels for those with depression, it gives me more understanding.
Villiers: I have been tested for Sjogren's. Multiple negative blood tests over many years and 1 1/2 years ago, a negative lip biopsy. My neuro sent me for Sjogren's testing then mentioned neuropathy -no tests- and spoke of middle-aged women who come in with these complaints. Suggested I see a psychiatrist and chronic fatigue specialist! My new neuropathic neuro (haha!) said that's called seronegative sicca syndrome which, when googled, usually comes up as Sjogren's, so it's confusing. And when you research neuropathy, the same symptoms come up under autonomic neuropathy. More confusion. But that's the story with neuropathy...
