Question:
Dad had scleroderma, I have morphia for 30+ yrs. Any connection? I’ve heard both yes and no. Thanks,
Response:
Morphea is a localized form of scleroderma. Localized doesn’t affect internal organs. Did your dad have the systemic form, that affected skin and internal organs? It’s not known what the family connection is in scleroderma – yet. There’s a registry begin assembled now that should give more information about that in the future – Scleroderma registry launched in US – http://dailynews.yahoo.com/h/nm/20010626/hl/registry_2.html "Do" <x…@xxx.com> wrote in message
