The Big 3: Connective Tissue Diseases
“ I never see Lupus......... ” ...WRONG! |
Lupus, estimated at up to 1 in 750 of the female population, is more common than M.S or Leukaemia.
Sjögren's Syndrome, a 'first cousin' of Lupus usually affecting those in their fifties and sixties, is an increasingly recognised cause of aches, pains and fatigue.
Hughes Syndrome ("APS" or "Sticky Blood") is now known to be an important (and treatable) cause of migraine, strokes and miscarriage.
