Battling Sjögren’s Sydrome

Donation protected
I was diagnosed in 2013 with an autoimmune disease known as Sjogren's Syndrome. This disease is a long-term autoimmune disease in which the moisture-producing glands of the body are affected. Other symptoms can include dry skin, a chronic cough, numbness in the arms and legs, feeling tired, muscle and joint pains, and thyroid problems. I also suffer from Fibromyalgia, which means I'm in constant pain.

Over the past 2 or so years I have been in and out of the hospital almost every month due to heart attack-like symptoms (Chest pains, stomach pain, back pain, numbness in arms and legs, etc). After several trips to the ER, and a few stays in the hospital, the doctors don't really have any answers.

Because of my medical issues, I am unable to hold a job making it extremely hard to pay my medical bills.  Living a some-what normal life has become difficult for me. I ask in good faith that you please try to help me get back on my feet. These medicial bills just keep pouring in and I could really use your help! Even if it's just $1, $5, or more... If you could find it in your heart to help me, I will be forever grateful for you!
