+ | This report presents a patient with Devics neuromyelitis optica associated with primary Sjögrens syndrome. Her first attack was right-sided optic neuritis at age 10 years. Attacks involving both optic nerves and medulla spinalis were recorded during the ensuing years. The diagnosis of Sjögrens syndrome could not be made until the second decade because it was not suspected. | ||

+ | My doctor didn't believe me when I told him I had glass-like shards...he thought I was joking. Crystals is a better word, but they feel like glass to me. | ||
+ | My eyes are constantly changing as I proceed through the MP. I can go for long periods with no problems at all, and then, the grittiness and the stickiness return, usually accompanied by blurred vision and other herx symptoms. | ||
