Thank you so much for your reply! I have read there are degrees of Morphea, and it can go down to muscle and bone, which is pretty scary. Hopefully, this won’t be part of my story. Sounds like yours was localized. I too have the older plaques that have turned large areas of my skin brown. New ones pop up as bright red. It seems like a lot of foods will kick off a flare of symptoms. I did an elimination diet and the one constant culprit is wheat. Also can’t stand some fabrics or elastic on my skin. It’s like every nerve ending is so reactive. An unexpected but appreciated effect is that I have lost 20 pounds since August. The fact yours disease eventually “burned out” gives me hope. Thank you 🙏
