Symptoms patients describe

- · Profound fatigue, joint pain, and peripheral neuropathy
- · Dental decay, vaginal dryness, and increased lymphoma risk awareness

Framed as evaluation — your clinician decides what is appropriate.
- · SSA/SSB antibodies, ANA, RF, and minor salivary gland biopsy if indicated

- · Ophthalmology and oral medicine evaluations for sicca management
