Sjögren’s syndrome isn’t always obvious—but once you know the patterns, you start seeing it everywhere.
In this video, I explain how I can often spot Sjögren’s syndrome from across the room and what subtle signs most people miss.
👀 Why Sjögren’s Is So Often Missed
Sjögren’s syndrome is one of the most underdiagnosed autoimmune diseases, especially in people who don’t “look sick.” In the video, I say it plainly: “Once you know what you’re looking for, you can’t unsee it.” From facial cues to posture, voice changes, and eye behavior, there are quiet signals the body gives long before lab work confirms anything. This is especially true for people who’ve been told it’s “just stress” or “just dry eyes.”
🧠 The Autoimmune Pattern Behind the Symptoms
Sjögren’s rarely travels alone. Many people also live with fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue, joint pain, or unexplained neurological symptoms. That overlap matters. Understanding the autoimmune pattern—not just isolated symptoms—can explain why treatments haven’t worked or why you feel dismissed. Is Sjögren’s causing your brain fog? Why does dryness show up alongside nerve pain? These are the questions patients are already asking.
💧 Dryness Is Only the Beginning
Most people associate Sjögren’s syndrome with dry eyes and dry mouth—but that’s just the surface. In this video, we talk about facial tension, swallowing changes, vocal strain, and the “wired but exhausted” feeling so common in autoimmune illness. If you’ve ever wondered, “Could this be Sjögren’s even if my labs are normal?” you’re not alone—and you’re not imagining things.
🩺 Who This Video Is For
This is for anyone navigating unexplained autoimmune symptoms, living with fibromyalgia, or questioning whether Sjögren’s syndrome fits their story. It’s also for caregivers and clinicians who want to understand what Sjögren’s actually looks like in real life—not just in textbooks.
