“It is said that if you know your enemies and know yourself, you will not be imperiled in a hundred battles; if you do not know your enemies but do know yourself, you will win one and lose one; if you do not know your enemies nor yourself, you will be imperiled in every single battle”. Sun Tzu Art of War

Autoimmune disease is a condition where your own immune system is at war with your own joints, skin or internal organs such as kidneys, blood cells etc. Very often, the diagnosis may be delayed due to the uncommon clinical presentations of autoimmune diseases. At LUI CARE, we strongly believe in coming to an accurate diagnosis and initiating the appropriate treatment for your condition. We believe in knowing your “enemy” and controlling them before it damages your body.

Some of the more common autoimmune and rheumatic conditions are listed below:

• Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA)
• Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE)
• Ankylosing Spondylitis (AS) or SpondyloArthritis (SpA)
