15 Jan Auto Immune Disease: Flowers Medical Group Can Help!
24 million people in the U.S. have autoimmune disease. Some of the most common are rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, lupus, multiple sclerosis, hypothyroidism, psoriasis, type 1 diabetes and fibromyalgia. These conditions cause the body to attach its own tissues as a foreign invader like bacteria. This can lead to damage of the nervous system, heart, joints, muscles, skin and other important organs. Exposure to toxins, over use of medications and improper diet are the leading causes of autoimmune diseases.
Many Americans are permanently disabled due to autoimmune disease which can be devastating to families. When not treated properly, these diseases are likely to cause death. Patients often find themselves spending thousands of dollars on medical treatment without success. Many go from physician to physician, finding themselves with more medication but without relief.
The good news is Flowers Medical Group can help! Treating autoimmune disease takes time, patience and specialized testing to get to the root of the problem. These diseases are complex in nature and require changes in many areas of your life. Specialists in main stream healthcare today like endocrinologists and rheumatologists assess one area of a person’s life but often fail to get the big picture of what is happening with the patient.

Patients at Flowers Medical Group are given the time and energy they need to find the cause of illness and develop a treatment plan that meets each person’s unique needs.
