Sjogren's Syndrome and Chronic Dry Eye Syndrome- Causes, Symptoms and Treatments

Sjogren’s syndrome is a particular form of autoimmune disease where one’s body defense mechanism (immune system) attacks one’s own tissue or organs.  In the case of Sjogren’s syndrome, it attaches the organs that produce moisture (mucous membranes).  The most common symptoms are dry eye and dry mouth.  It can also affect other organs such as throat, lungs, kidney, liver, pancreas, central nervous system, gastrointestinal systems, joints, and blood vessels. 

Other autoimmune diseases can also result in chronic dry eye including Rheumatoid Arthritis, Lupus, Grave’s Disease, Chrone’s Disease, and Fibromyalgia.  Diagnosis for Sjorgren’s syndrome can be difficult due to similarities of disease symptoms.

Dry Eyes Challenges in Sjogren's Disease

For many, Sjogren’s syndrome related dry eye often results in eye ulcers, corneal abrasion, extreme fatigue and a great deal of pain.  Some people with Sjögren's syndrome also have other autoimmune disorders, such as rheumatoid arthritis, systemic lupus erythematosus, systemic sclerosis, vasculitis, mixed connective tissue disease, Hashimoto's thyroiditis, primary biliary cirrhosis, and chronic autoimmune hepatitis..  It is a debilitating disease for as many as 4 million Americans.  Most Sjorgren’s patients are women.

Conventional Treatment for Sjogren's

Conventional therapy for Sjorgren’s chronic dry eye often includes eye drops – which make dry eye worse.  Prescription drugs often include steroids which cannot be used continuously over long periods of time due to its toxic effects to liver and kidney.  

How TheraLife Autoimmune Formula Works

TheraLife Autoimmune Formula is a natural way to provide relief for both chronic dry eye and Sjorgren’s Syndrome.  It works by:

1. Intracellular stimulation of tear glands (mybomian, lacrimal) to promote one’s glands to secret its own tears naturally and overcome issues with poor micro-circulation and membrane permeability. This is the key factor in Chronic Dry Eye Syndrome.

2.  Natural ingredients that act as an immune suppressant (immune modulator)

3.  Improve performance, endurance and energy levels.

4. No side effects of prescription drugs

5. Provides continuous daily support.

Sjogren’s Syndrome-Latest Research News-Antibodies May Hold The Secrets of Unraveling Mystery of Autoimmune Disease

 

 A group of scientists from Adelaide University have found that antibodies found in the bloodstream of patients with primary Sjogren’s syndrome bind to the receptors of small nerve endings found in glandular structures and other organs, and have the effect of blocking transmission through these nerves.

Results of the study published this week in the international journal Arthritis and Rheumatism.

The current study was carried out in collaboration with the North Western Adelaide Health Service, Adelaide University and the Flinders Medical Centre

Dr Rischmueller and associates Dr Sally Waterman and Professor Tom Gordon, Department of Immunology, Allergy and Arthritis, FMC hope to obtain major funding to continue their work into this debilitating illness, the results of which will also aid in the understanding and treatment of other autoimmune diseases.

Sjogren’s Syndrome  is typified by:

• severe dryness of the eyes and mouth
• accelerated dental cavities, thrush
• Fatigue
• muscle and joint pains
• swollen glands
• other widespread complaints- e.g. fibromyalgia.
