      Type: Diffuse Scleroderma

      Hello my name is Summer I have been sick since 2006. But was not diagnosed with Scleroderma untill august of 2008. My Scleroderma has caused me to have end stage interstial pulmonary fibrosis. I am now going through the process of being put on the transplant list for a double lung transplant. Fortunatly I have not had the typical problems such as thickening and hardening of the skin. But I do have raynauds.

      Treatments

      Cytoxan Somewhat Helpful

    • Open Diets & Weight Maintenance

      I have to lose about 70 pounds and fast because I have a life threatening disease. I am in the end stages of Interstitial pulmonary fibrosis and I need a double lung transplant. The transplant team will not put me on the transplant list untill I lose the weight. I know I need to do this but it is so hard because I love food. I also have a really difficult time with working out because I am on so much oxygen and I cannot breath good.

      Treatments

      Counting Calories Working / Worked
      working good I just wish I could lose quicker
      NutriSystem Not Working
      terrible food. Couldn't handle it I would gag
