Hello, I also have Scloderma & Raynoids, & T1D for 49years, hypothyroid, RA, esophagitis, gastroparesis, and digestive problems. The Raynaud’s started around 1998-1999, with a sore one my index finger that took over 6 months to heal. By 2007 I was diagnosed with HERS 2 breast Cancer , after a year of Chemo, Herceptin, I was cancer Free 👍 in December of 2019 I was hospitalized at first I was admitted for a low hemoglobin 6.8, my Right are was very swollen and Hard . All the doctors were very confused about it , called an infectious Disease doctor. Well I was then told I had cellulitis . After weeks of receiving IV treatments of antibiotics & myself researching , I came up with: it was Scloderma, at the next visit w/ the infectious Disease doctor I had asked “ could this be Scloderma? The Doctor then asked how long have u had this ? Since before 2008 . He the discharged me from his care & sent me to a rheumatologist, this doctor then set me up with an appointment w/ the Scleroderma Foundation @ Northwestern Hospital in Chicago. My Arm is still very tight $ a bit swollen. I can no longer straighten it ! I very hopefully I’ll get answers tomorrow 🤞🏻🤞🏻👍
