My eyes seem to have become extreme,y sensitive to ligh (artificial light and sunlight). Sjogren's? Also, I have just gotten over a really bad GI problem, similar to diverticulitis but the CT scan showed nothing. Severe cramping, some bleeding, lots of loose stools, nausea and really serious fatigue. Sjogren's? Anyone else?

Yes, yes, and yes. I have all that too. I work under florescent light and stare at a computer all day. By the time I drive home after work, I can barely focus because the light outside seems so bright from being in/looking at light all day.

My stomach is a wreck. And I'm pretty fatigued too. However, back in September I got a prescription for Ambien and I'm sleeping like I've never slept in my life, so doing better with fatigue.
