Oral and Dental problems in Scleroderma
In 2021 SRUK funded a research project led by Professor Liz Walker, based at the University of Hull, which focusses on improving oral and dental care in Scleroderma to help improve quality of life. The team have produced a video to help patients learn more about the oral and dental impacts of the condition, and how best to care for your mouth and maintain your oral health.

If you can’t, you may have ‘small mouth.’

    Please, PLEASE! Try the carnivore diet. It has reversed so many autoinmune conditions in sooo many people. Just give it a try. Many plants don't wanna be eaten so many experts theorize that they have developed deffense mechanisms that hurt us acutely (think peanut allergy deaths) or chronically (like many autoinmune conditions). Do your research and see how many THOUSANDS of people have been healed from all sort of metabolic and autoimmune diseases. Just try it. If it doesn't work, just go back to what you were doing. I know you won't regret it as it absolutely changed my life.

    I have it on my upper back I’ve had it since I was a teenager it didn’t bother me as much as it does now as an adult it gets very itchy when it seems to grow and feels like it tightens my muscles when it gets smaller. People have said it looks like a bruise that’s only one area on my back and some days it looks like it covers my whole back just about it’s annoying.

    Well I had a bad Reynauds attack last night from picking up cream at a supermarket. I was wearing gloves but all of a sudden lost all my blood to my hands and had to sit at the shop for half an hour until it resolve. It makes no difference how warmly dressed you are. I lose blood while training in the middle of summer. I have tried to find a cure for this too. Just touching cold eggs while I cracked them triggered that a few days ago. I get it from cool breezes too even though I am warmly dressed. I have also been exposing myself to cold and thought it was starting to improve and it suddenly got even worse. It seems to have something to do with estrogen dominance. If I touch cold weights my vessels in my finger burst. I have no heating and I can deal with that for a while and then all of a sudden my temperature drops. I lose blood to my feet while training.

    I think we should het tested for more autoinmune conditions. But sometimes doctors want to put everything into the same condition. When we're having more medical conditions, and not only one. When the doctor don't have this on mind, makes it difficult for us, without the right diagnosis we suffer more and we're in confusion. Please don't forget that its so important specific medication/s to control the skin tightening, fibrosis we really really need it! 🙏🏽 Please

    What about the connection of the thyroid to Raynaud's? Many people with Raynaud's are also hypothyroid. Can Raynaud's be reversed by restoring proper thyroid function? These seem to be covering up the symptoms of Raynaud's, and I am hopeful for a cure for the root cause of Raynaud's.

    Have you ever heard of any cases of limited systemic sclerosis being aggravated by physical trauma, such as a fall? I fell backward onto both hands, and fractured my left pinky. The tip of the fractured finger developed painful, thickened skin, like a callus, which I couldn't figure out. Over the next weeks, several other fingers on both hands developed swelling, Raynauds, and ulcers (right index finger severe). In 3 months I was diagnosed with limited cutaneous sclerosis, after never having these issues before the fall.

    It's terrible there's no more medications to stop this terrible disease. (Only immunopresants) but anyway this disease keeps going on, doesn't stop. It's not like Lupus that it enters in remission. Scleroderma continues attacking. 😢 This disease is extremely CRUEL. There's nothing yet to stop the collagen over production, Why? Nothing to stop the fibrosis, Why?? If this disease was cancer a lot of money for researching would be immediately there. We suffer more and everyday , and also with more health conditions ar the same time, like If we had no enough! We have to try to continue with a great lack of understanding , and extreme suffering. It's really terrible. 😢I can't understand how a rare disease like this can exist. I pray 🙏🏼 for a cure and better treatments for the fibrosis of our organs and our skin. (Collagen over production). 🙏🏼

    Just listened to Dr, sclederma mentioned but not raynauds. I have, calcianosis on both knees, Have had a lot of falls over recent years. So am assuming trauma related. I have had, raynauds, since age of 27,but has only become problematic in recent years. So basically, I want to know if people without sclederma, just raynauds can develop calcianosis?

    Can a topical NitricOxide type creme help salvage damage at skin? And how about hyperbaric or infra red therapies? And what about taking L citrulline and/or niacin, etc, to keep NO at work in these vessels before more damaged? Obviously I am not the authority here, but it seems there are chemicals one can get into the vessels to help at least a little to keep vessels from collapsing/keep them oxygenated.

    I found out I had Raynaud's a couple days ago. I believe how many symptoms and difficulties I have similar to her! Fortunately it's not as bad because I don't have scleroderma. But I'm also 18 which seems unusual because I hear it usually affects women over the age of 50. My grandma has it too. It's painful but manageable.

    @30:37 Talking about Doctors communicating with each other... The VERY FIRST thing that needs to be accomplished is accurate and complete representation of the ACTUAL patient/doctor meeting. It seems IMPOSSIBLE for any doctor, even the best I have... to get everything right in the visit summary after the fact! I live in the US in a one person consent state... so I record every single meeting or conversation I have with anyone in the medical field. I promise you, in my case, not one gets it all right, ever. It's sad, the stress on the medical field, the robotic move the cattle through as fast as possible method that seems to exist. I say, something has to give, there has to be a better way... From a very frustrated SSc/PAH patient who 'does doctors' full-time :(
