Thanks to Tami for reminding me about the excellent educational resources available through the Sjogren's Syndrome Foundation. The foundation sponsors several yearly patient seminars which are worth serious consideration. The following information can be found on their website:
The SSF’s Live, Learn & Share patient seminars are the best way to learn more about Sjögren's syndrome. Over the years, these seminars have helped thousands of patients and their family members gain a better understanding of Sjögren's syndrome while giving them an opportunity to meet fellow Sjögren's patients.Each seminar features healthcare experts who address an array of Sjögren's syndrome topics, while also allowing time to answer your questions.
If you want to be your own best patient advocate by gaining a thorough understanding of all the key aspects of Sjögren's syndrome, then these seminars are for you!
