I know that all of you don't suffer with Sjogrens, but I wanted to post this for the people who suffer from Sjogrens.
I've suffered from dry cracked lips for about a year now. At first I thought it was from the cold and dry weather. But I have begun to think that it is part of this disease. Mainly because I have run into a lot of people on another forum that have the same problem. I've bought everything on the market. I'm lip balm poor. I also have a problem with my dry sensitive skin. I accidently stumbled into a website when looking for a moisturizer and a fragrance free soap. It's www.alabu.com and one of their products is the Baby Face line. I decided to take a chance and order the soap and moisturizering oil. The oil is great. It's a clear, odorless, light oil that soaks right into the skin. I accidently discovered that it works great on the lips. It keeps them so moisturized and just works great. But the problem with it is that I find the bottle is a little unwieldy for carrying around in my purse. So I contacted the company that makes it and they have decided to produce a lip roller of the oil and I am just thrilled!!! I got the sample today to try and have to report to the company that I can't do without it. It just helps my lips so much. I'll let you know when the oil roller for lips is available. Billye |

Thanks for the tip, Billye! How neat that you had a part in the production of a new product! That's really service with a smile- their service, your (pain-free) smile!
Hugs,

Hi Billye,
I'm new, and didn't expect to see tips about Sjogren's- but glad you posted- I do have Sjogren's and chapped lips is definitely a problem. Has anyone experienced neuropathy whcih is -believed to be- "due to " Sjogren's? How do I set it up so that I know if you post about the lip roller ? Thanks robint |

Welcome Robint,
I have Sjogren's and neuropathy and was told that it is due to the Sjogren's. I take Lyrica for the neuropathy, it helps some. Are you on any meds for your symptoms? Sjogren's World has a very good forum for SJS if you need support or have questions about Sjogren's and all the fun that it dishes out, look into it. Sue |

robint,
I'm not sure how to tell you to set up your computer. I hope the moderator sees this. I understand that the Alabu company now has the lip roller on their website. I don't think it's been announced yet and it isn't listed as lip roller. It's just the small size of the moisturizer. I've ordered it. Here's the link: http://www.alabu.com/page/AS/CTGY/LS I hope you see this. Billye |

Thanks Billye. I don't yet struggle with the dry lips but OH my eyes....I now have a blocked oil gland. It IS always something, I swear.
Robin....,I do have some neuropathy in my toes. THAT is awful. Right now it is not bad enough to need treatment, and my fingers are crossed. I sometimes rub some Capzacin-P on my toes and believe it or not it really helps. That is an over the counter arthritis rub. |
