Hi Zuzu,
Quite a while ago you refered me to a sirte re my Mom's drying out of the mucous membranes and eventually her organs. Can you refresh me? She is vey upset as she has always swum in the am (not bad for an 80 yr old !) Now. though she's tried "barrier creams" and vaseline dhe breaks out in a rash and payches of dry skin.
It's a real downer for her mentally as well as physically. I'm hoping your site may have some suggestions,
Thanks.....Tagger

Hi Tagger!
I had suggested that your Mom might have Sjogren's Syndrome. Did a physician actually dagnose this?. ...Here's the link I posted back then....

Your mom, at 80 sounds phenomenal, (swimming etc). I do hope the link helps.
If you need me to dig up any more info for you, let me know.
All my best,
zuzu xx
