Sjogren's Diagnosis & Treatment Why It's So Complicated and What You Can Do

Struggling to get a Sjogren's diagnosis or find effective treatment? Sjogren's Disease can be a frustrating and confusing condition, often taking years to diagnose. In this video, Dr. Kara Wada – a board-certified allergist/immunologist AND Sjogren's patient – breaks down why getting answers can be so challenging, and what YOU can do about it. Dr. Kara shares her personal journey, revealing the often-overlooked symptoms beyond just dry eyes and dry mouth (fatigue, pain, brain fog!), and explains why Sjogren's is so often misdiagnosed or dismissed. You'll learn: The HUGE problem with current medical education about Sjogren's (and why many doctors miss it!). The "detective work" involved in diagnosing Sjogren's: history, physical exam, blood tests, and more. Why the "wait and see" approach is HARMFUL for Sjogren's patients. Who should be on your Sjogren's healthcare team (and how to find the right doctors). Current treatment options (and the HOPE for new therapies on the horizon!). This video empowers you to become a more informed advocate for your health and find the compassionate care you deserve. Ready to take charge of your Sjogren's journey?
