In this episode, I’m joined by Dr. Sehreen Mumtaz, a rheumatologist who helps patients living with autoimmune disease.
We’re breaking down what it really means when your immune system starts attacking your own body—and why this happens more often in women. We also talk about early warning signs, how these conditions are diagnosed, and what lifestyle factors can make a difference in how you feel day to day.
If you’ve been struggling with fatigue, joint pain, or symptoms that don’t quite add up, this episode will help you better understand what might be going on—and how to start getting answers.
