Abstract Sjogren's syndrome is an inflammatory disease affecting many systems. We report a Sjogren case with the presenting feature of an acute motor‐predominant polyneuropathy resembling Guillain–Barre syndrome. Upon further investigation, it was found that the patient had sicca symptoms for months. Scrupulous history should be taken to prevent a missed diagnosis.
