Scleroderma?

Recommended Posts

Yesterday, I woke up and all four of the fingers on my right hand were swollen and tight. I didn't do anything to trigger this. It just happened - first in my ring and middle fingers (it's still the worst in those two) and then seemed to spread to my pointer and pinky. My thumb is fine.

A quick google shows that Reynauds (which I have) + swollen fingers often = Scleroderma. Which wouldn't surprise me - I already have autoimmune issues with Hashimotos.

I'll be making an appt with my doctor and probably going for blood work to see what my ANA is.

I just really don't want to have another issue to deal with right now.

edited to remove whiney-ness. back in the saddle.
