A patient and a doctor offer a unique and authoritative perspective on recognizing and treating this pervasive illness that affects millions of people primarily women world-wide. One of the most common yet under-recognized autoimmune and rheumatological disorders Sjögren's (pronounced SHOW-grens) Syndrome or SjS is characterized by symptoms that shift almost daily usually beginning with vague discomforts such as dry eyes and mouth then advancing to more severe concerns such as joint pain and swollen glands. Because SjS can manifest itself differently in each patient A BODY OUT OF BALANCE provides readers with a comprehensive guide to the wide array of symptoms traditional and complementary treatments and invaluable coping methods so patients may devise a personal treatment plan.
