I have been hurting all over for the past two days. I can't get a hug from my daughter without it hurting. It is like my skin is on fire. Has anyone else had this problem?

Hi Sheila,

The burning sensation sounds like a neuropathy most likely due to the Sjogren's. I know it can be very painful. Usually I just wait it out, but sometimes the disease itself needs to be treated more aggressively. If it continues to be a problem you might want to see if you can get your next appointment moved up.

Take care,
Lazylegs
