Thanks for the additional information. I have moved your question to the Autoimmune Diseases group https://connect.mayoclinic.org/group/autoimmune-diseases/

Here you'll be able to connect with other members who have experience with Cellcept (mycophenolate mofetil) for autoimmune conditions, such as @sonya_nc @modelmiche @njc @sickirishlass @becsbuddy and @amylydia57

Suzy, can you share a bit more. What are the symptoms that you're hoping to control with Cellcept? Are current treatments not working?

Hi- the only medication I am taking is a RX for 40 mg of Prilosec to proactively protect my esophagus against possible scarring due to GERD. I have considered meds to better manage Reynauds, but have not moved forward with that. Sending well wishes to all dealing with scleroderma issues.

The doctor prescribed it for the pain and progression of the disease. I have pulmonary hypertension, kidney and liver issues due to The scleroderma. Thanks for the connection to autoimmune group.
