Autoimmune diseases

Miss Hong's Autoimmune Disease

Following her COVID-19 diagnosis, Miss Hong faced a myriad of issues: low platelet count, autonomic dysfunction, and immune imbalance. She experienced a decline in physical strength, extreme fatigue, chest tightness and pain, anxiety and depression, and dizziness. The greatest risk for COVID-19 patients isn't the virus itself, but the cytokine storm caused by an overactive immune response, leading to multi-system/organ/tissue damage.

This is due to the immune system being regulated by the autonomic nervous system. During the COVID-19 pandemic, factors like increased risk of disease infection and psychological stress from the pandemic have further destabilized both the autonomic nervous system and the immune system. Particularly noteworthy is that post-infection, the virus damages the immune system and further harms the autonomic nervous system, making it even more difficult for the body's natural physiological cycle and self-healing capabilities to coordinate and return to normal functioning. Through medical intervention, Miss Hong's platelet count has been restored to standard levels, and her body is in the process of regaining strength.

Paula's Multiple Sclerosis

Paula, in her 50s, started experiencing unexplained body pain, mobility issues, and difficulties with eating two years ago, leading to a significant weight loss. After consultations with various specialists, she was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis. The current treatment methods covered by national health insurance could only slow down the progression of her condition but not effectively improve it.

Through a friend, Paula learned about our Happy Clinic, a specialized facility for autoimmune diseases, and was advised to seek help here. Given the rapid deterioration of her condition, we immediately conducted specialized tests and confirmed that her case was an autoimmune attack. Our professional medical team then implemented biologic agents and related supportive therapies, along with providing rehabilitation consultation.

After over six months of treatment and rehabilitation, Paula's full-body pain has improved, and her mobility issues have seen significant progress. Most importantly, she can now eat normally, and her ability to speak and write is gradually returning.

We continue to assist her with ongoing rehabilitation and prevention, hoping she won't be affected by autoimmune issues again. Finding the right medical facility, the right doctors, and the right treatment has been crucial in her gradual recovery to health.
