A Body Out of Balance

Description

by Ruth Fremes, MA
and Nancy Carteron, MD, FACR

One of the most common yet underrecognized autoimmune and rheumatological disorders, Sjögren’s syndrome, affects more people than rheumatoid arthritis and lupus combined. A Body Out of Balance provides a comprehensive guide to a wide array of symptoms, traditional and complementary treatments, and invaluable coping methods, so patients may devise a personal treatment plan.

Cowritten by a woman living with the disease and by a physician who has treated Sjögren’s patients, this indispensable resource will enhance awareness and demystify this often misunderstood disorder.
