Until a few years ago I had not heard of Scleroderma or autoimmune diseases. For several years my health had been rapidly deteriorating and my doctor had no idea what it was. I spent a year before my diagnosis searching online and found many like me who could get no answer from their doctor. I found information about Scleroderma which seemed to fit my symptoms but I never told my doctor because I expected his derision. When the rheumatologist eventually told me what I had I was not surprised at all. I have spoken to others on forums and found out that I am not alone in this. For people like me and many thousands of others there should be a possibility to use the Internet to contact a doctor to end our suffering. This is a small book describing what I went through and a little information about Scleroderma and links to forums and websites.About the Author: Pamela Kewin lives in the UK after living and working in Germany and travelling in Pakistan.
