Sjogren disease- do i need treatment?

I have had sjogren disease for a few months. I have no symptoms and am wondering if I really need treatment from doctors?

Well, sjogren syndrome is progressive. It does come and go in a cyclical fashion. These periods of rest and flareups are unpredictable, but each time it presents with more severe symptoms. If you ignore your sjogren disease it can cause a number of complications that include poor dentition- the lack of saliva will lead to loss of your teeth, bad breath and a very painful mouth.

Yeast infections are very common in patients with sjogren,. The one way to prevent them is maintain good oral hygiene
Most people develop vision problems. The drying of the eyes leads to extreme sun sensitivity, blurred vision and corneal ulcers.

As the disease progresses it can cause damage to your lungs, kidneys, liver and nerves. Many people develop numbness and tingling in the hands and feet. Sjogren syndrome is a systemic illness and progressive. I do not think you should take this disorder lightly. My best advice is to speak to a rheumatologist. If you muck around with sjogren syndrome, it can make your life miserable.
