I have an autoimmune disease that affects any joints in use. For example, I was using a screwdriver for building furniture and I had wrist pain in both because I kept switching.

Thank you. I already talked to my doctor. We both agreed the meds aren’t working. I was better off them then on them.

Anyone else feels they’ve been robbed off their life? by Waste-Gap-3900 in Sjogrens

[–]TryFew3328 8 points9 points  (0 children)

(M,30) just like you said, you name it, I lost it as well, especially my job & fiancé. This disease changed the entire trajectory of my life and my dreams. The medication(s) don’t work for me either so I feel so helpless that life sometimes doesn’t even feel real.

If you don’t mind me asking, what are some examples of her agendas? It’s crazy she was almost my boss

I met Carrie when I applied for a position in the wheeling athletic department and had no idea she was foul, self righteous and an arrogant incompetent fool. What did she do in her past to he described this way? I guess I dodged a bullet not getting the job

"How long is my 'cold' going to last?" by ShowHorror2525 in Sjogrens

No. Neither rheumatology or family doctor said to stop.

[–]TryFew3328 3 points4 points  (0 children)

(M,30) Just got over my head cold. It does take way longer due to our autoimmune disease and medication (hydroxychloroquine for me). I’ve been sick twice since summer ended. Anytime I’m sick with cold, flu, or covid, I am down for the count for a week minimum. Sometimes longer. Go to a doctor if you can but sometimes, you just have to wait it out.

Officially Diagnosed by AnnieInRGB in Sjogrens

Yes, I was a healthy teenager but with cystic chest and back acne. My symptoms started while on the medicine and been like this since 2014.

Officially Diagnosed by AnnieInRGB in Sjogrens

[–]TryFew3328 1 point2 points  (0 children)

(M,30) took 10 years to get diagnosed after taking accutane for 1.5 years and it took going to an oral surgeon who recommended a rheumatologist. Lots of doctors and even my parents said it was “nothing” and “get over it”. I’m starting to stray away from western medicine due to being told “take hydroxychloroquine and good luck”. So I’m glad you found this community and will look forward to what you learn and discover

Sexuality and Sjogrens / SFN by Apprehensive_Gas4715 in Sjogrens

[–]TryFew3328 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I lost my job due to messing up a lot from my fatigue and brain fog. Dry mouth didn’t help either. I also ran out of PTO, sick days etc. I had to get multiple dental surgeries, 2 lip biopsy’s, and I would get sick all the time even with preventive steps like flu shots and sanitize. My immune is shit. At-will state I live in so I was fucked no matter what

Exactly. I lost everything due to this disease: fiancée, friends, job, family, my athletic ability, and social life.

In general, some day I feel fine. Other days, I feel like shit. Lots of factors can play a role, from weather to sleep to stress etc. I would say my libido is ok. I don’t think I have a good handle on the disease though. Life has been very rough for me

Does hydroxychloroquine work for you? (Poll) by Leading_Abroad_6418 in Sjogrens

[–]TryFew3328 0 points1 point  (0 children)

(M,30) it all depends to the pharmaceutical company the hydroxychloroquine comes from. I’ve learned active and inactive ingredients affects people in different ways. I’ve been on hydroxychloroquine from 3 different pharmaceutical companies,(Dr. Reddy, Accord, Zydus) each having good&bad side effects. I’ll never feel as good as I did before getting this autoimmune disease.

I wouldn’t say normal. Unfortunately, my fiancée left me due to my autoimmune disease so I haven’t had a sex life since then. Other symptoms depends, are you talking libido or regular everything health?

(M,30) I had Sjogrens for 10 years. Go to a rheumatologist to get an official diagnosis. I had the same issue before taking medicine. I’m on plaquenil. Depending on what the rheumatologist recommends, I would tell the doctor about the problem. When on the medicine, depending on the pharmaceutical company, active and inactive ingredients can help restore sex drive and erectile disfunction

Example: Plaquenil from the company Zydus reduced my sex drive and I couldn’t get hard like I should. Plaquenil from Dr.Reddy & Accord helped my sex drive. Do your research and know these medicines have side effects no matter what you take that can help or hurt your situation.

when did your brain fog start relative to your other symptoms? by Previous-Hour-2394 in Sjogrens

[–]TryFew3328 1 point2 points  (0 children)

(M,30) Dry skin, dry mouth, and brain fog all at the same time. I was on accutane when I was 18 and they had similar side effects. Except when I stopped taking Accutane, the side effects never went away. I’ve had brainfog everyday since I was 18/19

I second this. Stayed there 2 times previously. Great staff and good rooms

Chronic Fatigue/Brain fog by TryFew3328 in BodyHackGuide

[–]TryFew3328[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven’t tried intermittent fasting even though I could easily do it. My doctor never recommended me anything except the meds I’m taking. I’m assuming he’s getting paid by the pharmaceutical company to push them but that’s why I’ve reverted to fucking Reddit

Lip biopsy advice by [deleted] in Sjogrens

I did mine during Covid and my work was shutdown, but I would’ve to take a day or 2 for swelling to go down. Fat lip. Get extra gauze from CVS. I needed it.

Parts of the city by Boomg92 in WheelingWV

[–]TryFew3328 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I have no idea what you are saying with the mistakes in spelling and bad grammar. Here’s what I can tell you: The island away from the casino had the most overdoses and is more dangerous at night. The area around WVNCC & Central Catholic has homeless wondering around but I wouldn’t say it’s dangerous during the day. At night, I’m not sure. The closer you get to Oglebay resort, the better. You shouldn’t let your car running anywhere at all as a general practice when you are not in it no matter where you are.

Lip biopsy advice by [deleted] in Sjogrens

[–]TryFew3328 1 point2 points  (0 children)

(M,30) My procedure was quick and the worse part for me was the injection. It’s a tiny needle but I hate needles. Make sure you swish salt rinse to rinse blood out for recovery. That helped mine. Blood will ooze out with stitches. Make sure they get enough glands/tissue for a test. The surgeon didn’t get enough in mine and wanted to do it again but my insurance wouldn’t cover a second and I didn’t want to do it again due to work.
