A member asked:
What can white matter and inflammation on sjgren's patients brain mri mean? was told not to worry for now .
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Correction(probably): My guess is someone told you (or tried to tell you) "white matter degeneration." evidence of inflammation in the brain (sjogren's or not) is clearly something to worry about. But white matter degeneration may be something not to worry about. Reason: it is a nonspecific finding that can be seen in people without sjogrens as well as those without neurological problems. Don't worry at this time.
