    I am curious if anyone has in depth insight on autoimmune disorders and how they affect your...

    brain? Can MCTD cause brain deterioration? I have Mixed Connective Tissue Disorder which affects organs and wonder how it affects the brain.

    This is all I could find. Hope it helps. Neurological damage: Meningitis, psychological abnormalities due to brain damage, damage to the spinal marrow or facial nerves have been described. These symptoms occur often in Sjogren’s Syndrome, which often occurs in MCTD.

    For that reason the body produces a signifigant amounts of white blood cells and this could potentially cause more harm than good, as it can improve the infection inside the brain regions. Because of that the crucial sections of the brain continue to get bigger making the blood circulation to those parts decreased which ends up in even more complications.
