Re: Does anyone suffer from Chronic fatigue syndrome

That's funny, I was just reading up on chronic eye dryness and found this info on Sjögren’s. The last one on the list is prolonged fatigue. I can't work on my yard for 15 min without starting to feel extremely lethargic. And more so in the summer, when it's hot. Dry mouth is another one in the list.
"More Sjogren’s Syndrome Symptoms
The disease can affect parts of the body other than the eyes and mouth. You may experience dryness in your nose or throat or on your skin. Sjögren’s syndrome can also affect the joints, lungs, kidneys, blood vessels, digestive organs and nerves, causing symptoms such as:
-Swollen glands, specifically behind the jaw and in front of the ears
-Joint pain, swelling or stiffness
-Prolonged dry skin
-Skin rashes
-Chronic dry cough
-Vaginal dryness
-Problems urinating, including pain, urinating more than usual, getting up at night often to urinate and needing to urinate suddenly
-Numbness or tingling in your fingers and toes
-Prolonged fatigue and/or a feeling of tiredness that keeps you from daily activities."
By the way, my chronic symptoms include: Bad breath, dry mouth, post nasal drip, white coating on tongue, GERD, burping, allergies, fatigue, tooth erosion, dry-burning-itchy eyes, and the eye problems seem to be getting worse. Could it be Sjögren’s?
