Please does anyone know if Sjogren's Syndrome can come and go and come back again? Can it come

My daughter became very ill with either Sjogren's, or a connective tissue disease or something else (no doctors agreed on what it was.) It lasted heavily for 8 months, then went away. Now all of a sudden about 5-6 of the symptoms have begun to happen again and I'm scared she might have an autoimmune disease after all. She was 15 the first time this came on, and she's 17 now. Anyone??? Whether it is Sjogren's or something else, it messed with her mind and her nervous system, digestive system, joints, skin, heart, and more! Help if you know anything, please.
Please does anyone know if Sjogren's Syndrome can come and go and come back again? Can it come on fast?This does sound like more than just Sjogren's I have what is still considered a "rare" autoimmune disease, but I know for a fact that it is not rare, just little know by many doctors. This can cause all of the symptoms that you mention. It could be both, but blood work can tell. Best wishes for you and your daughter
Please does anyone know if Sjogren's Syndrome can come and go and come back again? Can it come on fast?You need to take her back and ask for a Autoimmune Screening Test, a blood test that will reveal if she has several or zero autoimmune conditions. That is the only way to know for certain, but I would do it PDQ!
