If you've been diagnosed with-or suspect you may have-Sjögren's disease, you might feel helpless or overwhelmed, and you almost certainly feel dry and sore and too exhausted to sort out all the information coming at you. The mental load of managing a chronic illness can be intense, especially since you'll often need to be your own expert and your own advocate.

This book is about to become your new best friend. Wendy Presant-who lives with Sjögren's disease-breaks down what Sjögren's is, how it's diagnosed, and the difference between trying to ""cure"" something incurable and healing to the point where you can start living again.

Presant explores clinical treatments and complementary lifestyle changes that can help soothe your symptoms and fight off flare-ups. She describes the kind of people you'll want in your corner-everyone from a rheumatologist to a naturopath-and explains their roles in treating Sjögren's disease. Finally, she shares her own lifestyle and the non-pharmacological options she uses to manage her symptoms.

An autoimmune diagnosis can be a terrifying thing. But you don't have to face it alone or unarmed: Dry: A Holistic Guide to Sjögren's Disease is here to place the tools for living with Sjögren's into your hands.
