Autoimmune Conditions & Immune System Balance

Autoimmune symptoms often appear slowly, including fatigue, pain, digestive issues, and brain fog, and traditional care may focus only on symptom management. At The Functional MDs, our double board-certified physicians take a deeper approach. We identify the underlying triggers that cause the immune system to become overactive, helping you reduce inflammation, calm autoimmunity, and rebuild long-term wellness.

What Are Autoimmune Conditions?

Autoimmune conditions occur when the immune system, designed to protect you, mistakenly attacks your own tissues. Instead of responding only to infections or threats, the immune system becomes dysregulated, triggering chronic inflammation that can affect the thyroid, joints, gut, skin, brain, or multiple systems at once.

Autoimmunity often develops gradually, beginning with subtle symptoms like fatigue, digestive issues, headaches, or brain fog long before a formal diagnosis is made. While traditional care may focus on managing symptoms or suppressing the immune response, our approach seeks to understand why the immune system shifted in the first place.

Signs Your Immune System May Be Out of Balance

Autoimmunity can affect nearly every system of the body, often presenting long before a formal diagnosis. Common signs include:

  • Chronic fatigue or low stamina
    Immune overactivation can drain energy and impact daily functioning.
  • Joint pain, stiffness, or muscle aches
    Inflammatory pathways often drive persistent pain or discomfort.
  • Digestive issues
    such as bloating, constipation, diarrhea, or food sensitivities. Many autoimmune disorders begin in the gut, where 70% of the immune system lives.
  • Brain fog, headaches, or memory issues
    Inflammation can affect cognitive function and concentration.
  • Skin conditions
    such as rashes, eczema, or psoriasis. The skin often reflects immune dysregulation and inflammation.
  • Recurring infections or low immunity
    An imbalanced immune system may be overactive in some areas and underactive in others.
