I have had blood tests for sjogrens ANA. anti ro and La CRP and ESR all normal hence her stating I cannot have sjogrens
My podiatrist told me about corneal confocal microscopy which is non invasive test for SNF because even my SNF is only a diagonosis through elimination of everything else the neuro tested for I can't get the lip biopsy without a Rheumy but she has discharged me. I don't take antihistamines only once to see if it helped my eyes. I also have awful dry inflamed eyelids that will not get better 😏 Feeling pretty fed up with it all really |

Why can't your primary care physician order the lip biopsy??
If not, then get another rheumy for a second opinion...as your symptoms scream Sjogren's. |

I am in England so specialist tests have to be requested through consultants, my GP can't request the lip biopsy
I hope my neurologist is going to be of some use on Monday |

I've been having more joint pain in my hands. When I open and close my hand, it doesn't feel 100%. Most of the pain is in the pinky and karate chop area.

Yes, but most ticks in the UK do not carry the bacterium.
