All three authors have published extensively on the subject and lecture internationally on Sjögren's.
Sjögren's syndrome is now considered pivotal in the spectrum of auto-immune disorders. It presents in a variety of guises, including fatigue, aches and pains, food and other allergies and not surprisingly is frequently misdiagnosed as, for example, 'fibromyalgia, 'M.E.', glandular fever etc. It also frequently overlaps with other auto-immune conditions such as hypothyroidism (Hashimotos), Hughes Syndrome and coeliac disease. Diagnosis is especially important as it usually responds to treatment, notably with quinine derivatives (Plaquenil).
This book examines important new insights into the link between Sjogren's syndrome and other conditions, such as antiphospholipid syndrome, coeliac and lymphoma.
Important new insights into Sjogren's links with other conditions (e.g. antiphospholipid syndrome, coeliac, lymphoma)
