I don't have severe ...I was recently diagnosed. I don't have severe symptoms. That is probably why I feel very optimistic and want to believe that I will not be the victim of my illness. I have enjoyed a very active life, and without knowing I have suffered fatigue, dried eyes, dried mouth, stiffness, etc. It was just life; I lived it without feeling sick. I wonder if I will start “feeling sick” now that I know that it is not life, that it is Sjogrens.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-690850457652849477.post-2581822040181749202012-01-02T04:43:54.809-08:002012-01-02T04:43:54.809-08:00There is a life Before, and a live After.

Still my goal. But it is hard to train for this. Some days, I have energy to run 3 miles. Other days, I have no energy. Some days, the cold air feels like it will cause pleurisy to set in if I run (happens every winter). I will run and train as I can. And I may succeed in training to come upon race day and sleep right through it. And I feel that I'm fortunate in that my hardest issues with the disease is dealing with sleep...either insomnia or sleep 12 hours and still feel tired. It is hard to control. Plaquenil has been extremely helpful with the rest so far.LisaMarienoreply@blogger.com
