Sjögren's Disease


Sjögren's Disease is a systemic autoimmune disease that can impact the entire body.


While it is commonly associated with widespread dryness, the condition can also lead to serious complications such as debilitating fatigue, chronic pain, major organ involvement, neuropathies, and an increased risk of lymphoma.


The disease effects millions of people worldwide and due to a lack of education and research, it is often misunderstood by the medical community. Sjögren's Australia is committed to making a lasting difference.
