Can you share a bit more about your autoimmune disease?
What disease was it? What kind of medications have helped you?
I'm suffering from some kind of autoimmune-like disease with similar symptoms and trying to figure out what's wrong with me.
- treeman79 5y agoSjogrens. Second most common after lupus. Lots of neurological complications. Plaqunial helped a lot, but I can’t tolerate it. Shame, it works well. Steroids are good for ending a flare but it’s hard to get prescribed, also side effects. What really worked for me me was * blood thinners for cognitive defects * Avoid triggers, direct sun, sugar, caffeine, spice * autoimmune protocol diet * magnesium, vit d, e, b complex, fish oil Get blood work done for each kind. ANA test as a starting point. For me Early Sjo test confined diagnosis. Make a list of ALL symptoms and take it with you to all doctors. A Neuro-ophthalmologist was the first to say Sjogrens based only off my sheet. An elimination diet is probably the best place to start. I ate nothing but sweet potatoes for a month, my symptoms all cleared up. Stated coming back when I introduced random foods. That’s how I started following AIP diet
