Dry mouth. Dry eyes. Dry nose. Dry skin. Dry throat. Fatigue. Sjogren's Syndrome can cause any combination of these, and sometimes much, much more. Following my diagnosis for Sjogren's Syndrome I went to the library to find out more. I came across this book and was immediately engrossed. I quickly realised that I would have to have my own copy hence my visit to amazon! Sjogren's Syndrome is very poorly understood. Not only are its root causes unknown, but there is not even worldwide agreement on the criteria for diagnosing Sjogren's Syndrome. I found this book offered a solid background on the symptoms and difficulties of Sjogren's Syndrome. The approach was detailed without being too 'stuffy'. I also appreciated the useful 'self help' sections. Although generally balanced, it does follow the understanding of Sjogren's Syndrome Foundation and therefore there are other concepts that could have been included, but are not. (For example the use of Evening Primrose Oil.)
