It’s Christmas eve, and we know you’re probably running around putting the finishing touches on your decor and wrapping those last-minute gifts. Our advice? Stop. Breathe. Try not to let the holidays stress you out. We know it’s hard — almost impossible, if we’re being honest — but that stress can raise your cortisol, which can then cause your autoimmune disease to flare. So take this as your sign: Use the holiday as a day to rest, wherever possible. You deserve to enjoy the day AND feel good afterwards!

We’ve been talking a lot about Sjogren’s lately, so let’s talk about biologics for Sjogren’s! This came up in a recent TikTok Live when someone asked how the biologics were coming along and the answer is … slowly.

To be fair, we don’t even know how well biologics will work for Sjogren’s, given the nature of the condition. But trials are ongoing, and we’re hoping for the best 🤞🏻

If you want to look at what clinical trials are happening, or even recruiting, you can always visit ClinicalTrials.gov to search for Sjogren’s-specific treatment trials.

Sjogren’s is a really common autoimmune disease, and can be diagnosed on its own, but is also frequently found as a co-occurrence with other conditions like Hashimoto’s, lupus, and rheumatoid arthritis. If you’re dealing with symptoms that go beyond the typical dry eyes and dry mouth, you may want to get checked out for other conditions, as well. And while hydroxychloroquine can work for some Sjogren’s patients, we’ve seen the best symptom relief with treatments that can stimulate the salivary glands, or even just eye drops.

Antiphospholipid syndrome is a vascular autoimmune disease where antibodies attack your tissues, causing blood clots. While this can be especially dangerous during pregnancy because of the risk of miscarriage, pre-eclampsia, or stillbirth, blood clots can also lead to heart attacks and stroke even if you’re not pregnant. Aspirin definitely helps, but this is something that needs to be monitored long-term to ensure your health and safety.

If your current providers aren’t taking you seriously, we will. We’re happy to do second opinions, and can do telehealth consults if you’re out of state. Visit our website at the link in the comments to make your appointment today.

Crohn’s itself won’t cause your irritated eyes, but uveitis can, and it’s a common co-occurrence with Crohn’s and other forms of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Uveitis can be extremely damaging to your eyes, so go see your regular provider or an eye doctor ASAP to get checked out!

UCTD, which stands for undifferentiated connective tissue disease, is different than MS — it’s kind of a catch-all term for a connective tissue disease that doesn’t have the right markers to be identified as something else, like lupus or Sjogren’s, but the patient still has a positive ANA and is experiencing symptoms similar to those other autoimmune conditions.

If you were diagnosed with it alongside multiple sclerosis and have questions about how that works, we’re happy to answer those at an appointment or during one of our lives! Bring your questions to our next TikTok Live on 12/16, or you can make an appointment for a consult with us at the link in the comments.

Fatigue is the number one symptom we see across all the autoimmune disease and chronic illnesses we treat. So while your chronic fatigue could be related to EBV, it could also be related to something else entirely. A good doctor will ask follow up questions about when, how, how frequently, etc. you’re experiencing fatigue, but it’s such a widespread symptom, it may be hard to pinpoint the exact cause.

If you're experiencing unexplainable fatigue that's impacting your daily life, we should talk. Book an appointment with us at the link in the comments 💙

The TL;DR is “yes,” but it’s more complicated than that. Small fiber neuropathy can be a complication from EBV, not because there’s a direct link between the two, but because post-infectious states can lead to neurological symptoms.
