I'm being referred to a sclerooderma unit. I have had erythromelalgia since I was young, I have been diagnosed with fibromyalgia except my GP and myself feel that there is more to the story. I have vestibular migraine, bowel issues with urgency and incontinence, breathlessness issues and sleep apnea and pcos. That doesn't cover the mental health issues. My bloods show i have sky high rheumatoid factor of 100, but the rheumatologist won't diagnose RA as I dont have swelling. I have borderline and just positive ANA. The interesting part is my mother, who has raynauds and similar issues to me but she also hasn't had a diagnosis for over a decade. She has optic neuritis and hip replacements etc. There is more to the story but we don't fit in the checklist boxes of diagnosis, I keep getting worse and fibro is not progressive so none of it makes sense.

Awsome video with well explanation. But would you say that CREST symptoms are exclusive for Limited systemic sclerosis or does Diffuse also show CREST signs?
