Re: Oh, and I'm new...sort of TO Margaret.

Margaret-

I have Sjogren's syndorme too. My CP was from a retained stone. I

have to ask...do you get swollen saliva glands when you have a flare?

I have to suck on Warheads to clear them out, and I still get blocked

often and run the risk of my saliva glands getting infected. I hate

that!

Welcome to the group, BTW. I am sometimes grumpy and useless too(I

loved your line!)...but I find this group very helpful and supportive,

making me feel less grumpy anyway! :-) I hope to hear from you more

often!

Have you had a stone in the salivary gland yet? I had a stone, and

lots of " gravel " on the right side once. Getting that sucker out was a

real pain! The doc manipulated it out without cutting, but it still

hurt like the dickens.

It never ceases to amaze me the stuff that can go wrong with the human

body...my salivary glands don't seem to change much during flares, but

I do get enlarged lymph nodes sometimes.
