(Center) Constrictions in tendons (contractures) caused by over production of collagen have left Jill's fingers curled and swollen. (Right) Fran's Scleroderma left her near death in 1982. Stable now, despite loss of a finger, Fran has helped others by serving as a Chapter President in the Scleroderma Foundation, and starting a support group in New York. Links to Scleroderma sites are listed below. Scleroderma is an autoimmune disease of the connective tissue. Although it primarily afflicts women in their child bearing years, the ranks of Scleroderma patients do include both males and children. The two major forms of the disease include limited (CREST) and systemic . The latter has also been referred to as Systemic Sclerosis. Scleroderma is an over-production of collagen, and for this reason, one of the symptoms of Scleroderma is hard skin. Scleroderma taken literally means "hard skin", and this title has probably hurt efforts to publicize this disease. A disease that causes skin to harden doesn't sound nearly as ominous as AIDS, Cancer, Multiple Sclerosis etc. Unfortunately, Scleroderma causes much more than cosmetic problems. In addition to the hardening of the skin, Scleroderma can affect internal organs including the lungs and kidneys, and can cause these organs to fail with potentially fatal consequences.
