Gracias a la #IA generativa en Tik Tok hay un vídeo de Mercedes Milá con declaraciones que no son suyas para vender la cura de la #diabetes. Y aunque lo denuncia a la plataforma "no incumple" ninguna norma. Unos caerán y otros la criticarán. Pero es grave. instagram.com/p/DM0eyY6iVcK/…

Even the ones that are officially included, tend to be under diagnosed, especially lung, Kidney, and neuro. SFN is overlooked until severe or misattributed to fibromyalgia.1/

#NeuroSjogrens’ most common manifestation is #SmallFibreNeuropathy and #Dysautonomia! It’s often severe but seronegative (more commonly “early antibodies” are positive but not SSA), and slowly progresses over years, even before dryness or joint pain. It needs #IVIG to stop the
