🧠 What Is Autoimmune Disease?
Autoimmune diseases occur when your immune system—your body’s natural defense—mistakenly attacks your own tissues, thinking they’re threats.
Over time, this internal “self-attack” can lead to inflammation, pain, and organ damage.
Common autoimmune conditions include:
- Hashimoto’s thyroiditis
- Rheumatoid arthritis
- Lupus (SLE)
- Psoriasis
- Multiple sclerosis
- Inflammatory bowel disease (Crohn’s, Ulcerative Colitis)
- Type 1 diabetes
Autoimmunity is not just about one organ—it’s a systemic imbalance.
Most patients suffer for years with vague symptoms like fatigue, joint pain, bloating, rashes, or brain fog—often told “your labs are normal.”
🚨 Autoimmune diseases are complex—but not unmanageable.
