Question about sleep patterns : [View all]

I'm coming out of a severe flare of Sjogren's (think Lupus lite). The medication I'm on has resolved the fatigue and breathlessness. In general, I'm out of condition but am working on regaining my strength. Here's the question: I'm sleeping well, but I'm sleeping 11-12 hours a night. Is this my body healing itself after the flare?
