More tips from Ms. Granola
Over the weekend, my right side went numb. Just for a day. I had to drag my foot along, and my knee acted wonky and wiggly - I had a nice limp started.
There has been a whisper of nerve pain in my right eye - often the precursor to a cluster cycle.
I am more than willing to abide by conventional medical advice, and I take my meds like a good girl. But folks, there is no cure for sjogren's or other autoimmune disease. I have bad days.
I don't believe this is reason to give up or buy into crazy snake oil promises of cures. I just have to believe that lifestyle makes a difference, and I will take help wherever I can
Here's an article I found on Dr. Weil's site today. It's not super specific, but it also has some pointers worth trying when other methods fail. (I see skipping dairy made the list. I knew I was on to something.)
