                        I was daignosed with Sjogrens about 3-4 years ago and was in a study taking a medication that helped with saliva and tears. I had a very very dry mouth, when not taking the meds. I stopped taking them after the study as I couldn't afford them.  Then about 2 years ago, I suddenly just about choked on saliva.  since then I have my saliva back.  I went back and told the nurse to tell the doctor that was in charge of the clinical trial.  I also wrote to him, but recieved no answers.  I have been on Paxil and read in a Paxil ad that there could be excess saliva as a side effect.  Did that cure me, or what?  I have no symptoms anymore except for arthritis pain.
