Are you on new meds? Or any meds at all even If you've been on them for awhile. If so, the swollen tongue and burning could be an allergic reaction. Check with your doctor or phamacist. The dry eyes and mouth can also be from meds. I drink water constantly because of dry mouth. Use tears eye drops to help your eyes be more comfortable. Fibro does have a lot of weird symptoms and we all seem to be finding new ones every day. I hope you start feeling better and please check with someone about the swelling. I've had many allergic reactions and they can be dangerous. Good luck. Hugs

i was told for FOREVER, even before fibro i had Sjogrens. i have Meibomian gland disfunction (i don't produce the oils that protect my eyes) and anything that comes out of my tear ducts feels like sand is being thrown in my eyeballs. my salivary glands...have been swelling since i was 4. i'm 32 now and just got them test, NEGATIVE for Sjogrens!!! wtf! so now we don't know what else i have. Good luck to you

Hi I also have burning itchy sore eyes and dry mouth. I use Restasis for dry eyes and Biotine for dry mouth, some days it helps and other days it doesn't. Does anyone have sore ears? There are nights that my ears get so sore that I cannot sleep or lay on either side because of the sore aching pain on the outside of each ear. Hope all of you have a blessed day.

Could it be your meds drying everything out? My GP was querying Sjogrens, med change.... mostly gone.
