It occurred to me that we don't often get good news on here so I thought I'd share:
I had my annual check up with my rheumatologist yesterday and he said I am the healthiest I've been since he diagnosed SSc and after the results that my throat is totally unaffected puts me at the very mildest end of the spectrum he seemed so pleased, it was so lovely to hear and see. I just thought I'd share some nicer news!
I was diagnosed with Myositis with a scleroderma overlap(systemic sclerosis) and dysphagia 18 months ago and was in a wheelchair from the onset. I managed to get control of my legs 6 months ago and ditched the wheelchair, my rheumatologist couldn't believe that I walked into his consulting room a few months ago.
He said it was lovely to see such great progress from a rare, incurable disease.
