Sounds like first doctor diagnosed it right. Ssc- can cause interstitial lung disease with ground glass. Also pain, fatigue, kidney function. I would get in touch with a good rheumatologist. Healthy diet and walking or just getting your lungs working is always a good thing. Keep positive -keep moving. Don’t throw the towel in. It’s hard to help yourself when you feel like crap - but you are worth it.

Thank you. I haven't thrown in the towel yet but running out of medical options. The new medication Arava is doing no good. We already tried methotrexate which I did not tolerate. I will be calling him Monday and back to plaquenil and steroids until we try something else new.
