I'm having a new problem, not caused by my scleroderma. Even though it's not a girly sort of issue, a pelvic exam is a likely first step to investigate. So, this is something I'm just going to live with (oh joy!) because I don't do medical things that require contact with that area.
Sorry for being cryptic. I just need to put it somewhere.

Oh no. Did you go and see a doctor about it? Did they say it was more than just pee in a cup?

Hi Jammer - good to see you. Sorry you're going to have to have that when you hate it.
Feel free to Babblemail me any time.

PS - looked up scleroderma in my homeopathic book & it says avoid all forms of heat.
From other books: the use of PABA has been proposed for scleroderma.
My "Encyclopedia of Natural Healing" there is about a page & a half of info & suggestions. Here are a few: "Unrefined, cold-pressed nut & seed oils like flax seed, sunflower seed, pumpkin seed & walnut oil will help reduce the inflammation of scler." the Recommend as "Most Important" - Eveninging primrose or combination flax oil, two 500 mg capsules 3X daily or 1 tbsp daily. "Helpful" - Calcium - 1200 mg
Silica, 1000mg Magnesium 600 mgIt suggests take blood, ruine & hair mineral analysis tests to determine toxic levels of lead & iron in the body (there are natural methods of detoxing if this is the case). Also suggests allergy testing as connective tissue problems can be due to inteestinal tract parasites or candida infection. I had 'chemical sensitivities' - allergy to perfumes, etc, mouth swelling etc - which responded when I went on an 'anti-candida' diet & regime called "Yeast Busters".
If you want any more of the information, just let me know Jammer.
much love, Kath
