is sjogren's syndrome fatal
Women are most commonly affected by Sjogrenâs syndrome. There is no cure, but the disorder can be managed. Sjogrenâs syndrome is not usually life-threatening. However, in rare cases, organs such as the liver and kidneys may be involved, which can increase the severity of the condition. In a small number of people, Sjogrenâs syndrome may be associated with lymphoma (cancer of the lymph glands).
