No it's not : Shortens or you ANA would be positive. You could be tired from anemia or need more thyroid possibly . Is your B12 ok? Maybe a super B complex would help. Are you eating healthy and getting 8 hours of sleep?? Any chance of sleep apnea? Dry eyes are common. Dry washing with baby shampoo at least daily. If tired tend to lick lips subconscious and makes them dry!!
