Hello there Diane, I just want to clarify what you mean with your abbreviation CTD. If this is your abbreviation for Connective Tissue Disease then that is what Scleroderma is...a connective tissue disease. There are over 200 types of CTD. It is definitely not true that nothing can be done. There are a range of medications and procedures that provide treatment and symptom relief. There are also a number of self-care strategies that can enhance and maintain your health.

All my best
