March is Autoimmune Disease Awareness Month.

Autoimmune diseases don’t always show on the outside — but for millions, the pain, fatigue, and inflammation are part of daily life.

When the immune system attacks the body it’s meant to protect, early detection and expert care matter.
If you or someone you love is experiencing persistent joint pain, fatigue, or unexplained inflammation, don’t ignore the signs.

At OAOC Clinical Research in Bellevue, we are actively advancing research in autoimmune conditions like Rheumatoid Arthritis, Lupus, and Sjogren’s Syndrome.

💙 Awareness leads to diagnosis.
💙 Diagnosis leads to treatment.
💙 Research leads to hope.

Have you heard of IgG4-related disease?

It’s a condition where the immune system causes inflammation and scar tissue that can form mass-like swelling in different parts of the body — like the salivary glands, pancreas, behind the kidneys, or even around the eyes.

Because it can look like cancer or even mimic Sjogren’s (with dry eyes and dry mouth), many patients go years without the right diagnosis.

The good news?
�With a biopsy, doctors can confirm it — and there is now FDA-approved treatment available.

If you or someone you know has unexplained swelling or autoimmune symptoms that don’t quite fit, ask:�Could this be IgG4-related disease?

At Overlake Arthritis & Osteoporosis Center, our rheumatology experts help identify the root cause of your pain and guide you toward the right treatment — so you can sleep better and move better.

Did you know Sjögren’s syndrome doesn’t just cause dry mouth — it can seriously affect your eyes too?

Because it’s an autoimmune condition, it can reduce tear production and lead to something called keratoconjunctivitis sicca (chronic dry eye).

Here are 4 ways it can impact your vision:
1️⃣ Burning & stinging from corneal irritation
2️⃣ Sensitivity to bright light due to corneal damage
3️⃣ Fluctuating blurry vision — clear one moment, blurry the next
4️⃣ Blepharitis — inflammation around the eyelids

If you’re living with Sjögren’s and noticing vision changes, don’t ignore it.
Your eyes deserve attention too. 👁️✨
