Treatment Options for UCTD (Undifferentiated Connective Tissue Disease) 🩺

UCTD treatment depends on symptoms. Mild cases may only need over-the-counter pain relievers, while skin rashes can respond to topical steroids. Moderate disease is often managed with DMARDs like hydroxychloroquine, and severe cases may require stronger medications such as methotrexate.

💡 If you have joint pain, rashes, or oral ulcers, talk to a rheumatologist—early care makes a big difference.

Why switching back to traditional Medicare is so hard ⚠️

Once you enroll in a Medicare Advantage plan, going back isn’t simple. The best time to get a Medicare supplement is in the first 6 months after turning 65—no health questions, no denials. After that, coverage can be limited or denied.

💡 Knowing this timing helps protect your long-term access to care.

👉 Follow for honest Medicare guidance.

Joint pain isn’t always just aging or arthritis ❗
Sometimes it’s Sjögren’s syndrome.

I saw a patient in her 70s with long-standing joint pain, dry eyes, dry mouth, fatigue, and morning stiffness. Tests showed SSA positivity and sometimes rheumatoid factor — common in secondary Sjögren’s overlapping with rheumatoid arthritis.

💡 Joint pain with dryness or fatigue? Talk to your doctor.

Autoimmune? Be Careful With AG1 & “Herbal” Supplements

A study highlighted by Healio Rheumatology shows that spirulina and other herbal supplements may trigger disease flares in patients with autoimmune conditions. “Wellness” marketing can be convincing—but natural ≠ safe for everyone. Some supplements stimulate the immune system, which is exactly what many autoimmune patients are trying to calm down. 🚫 Common supplements to avoid or use with caution if you have autoimmune disease: • Spirulina • Elderberry • Alfalfa • Echinacea • Ashwagandha

👉 Always discuss herbal or alternative supplements with your doctor—especially if you have a diagnosed or suspected autoimmune condition.
