A team doctors in Navi Mumbai has brought renewed hope to a 28-year-old woman living with Sjögren's syndrome-associated ganglionopathy, a rare neurological complication of the autoimmune disease. With a previous history of autoimmune myositis, she endured a long and painful journey marked by severe dry eyes and mouth, muscle weakness, fatigue, imbalance, numbness, and progressive loss of mobility that left her unable to perform routine daily activities independently.

After consulting multiple hospitals, the patient and her family were told that treatment options were limited and there was little hope for meaningful recovery. Following a personalised cell-based therapy and comprehensive rehabilitation program at StemRx Hospital & Research Centre, she is now showing encouraging improvements, including reduced stiffness, improved mobility, and the ability to walk with support, leading to a better quality of life.
