Secondary conditions

[Sylviaherring]

Hi all. Hope you are all as well as can be

I have systemic sclerosis with raynaurds, diagnosed in dec 2017. I have just been diagnosed with addison's disease, which is another autoimmune condition. How many of you guys deal with a secondary condition ?

Hi,

I have a few! Scleroderma, Sjögren's syndrome, hypothyroidism and PBC. It's difficult to manage, as the scleroderma takes priority to the detriment of the others, and doctors like to blame symptoms on the other conditions. Managing one would be easier I think lol!
