IgG4-RD Care Takes a Dedicated Team
IgG4-RD can impact your body in a variety of ways. Therefore, a team of doctors may be needed to help manage your symptoms.
You may have a gastroenterologist (a specialist in digestion) and/or a rheumatologist (a specialist in joint disease) leading your treatment journey.
Specialists like these usually have the knowledge and experience needed to properly diagnose and treat IgG4-RD. They can also communicate with your primary care doctor, so everyone on your team is aware of your diagnosis and treatment needs.
