Raynauds, Scleroderma and bone loss

Hello! My name is Tanya, in March 2019 I was diagnosed with Raynauds & Scleroderma. I was cut at the nail shop, had an infection and ulcer develop on my finger and at the end of everything I almost lost my whole finger! In 2022 I had another ulcer form and not heal and was put in icu for a picc line to be placed, 2 days of hospital stay went to 6, 3 month treatment went to 12 months. I didn’t work for 9 months and had to return in December 2022 so I wouldn’t lose my job. In July 2022 I found out I am losing 8 teeth because of bone loss. When speaking to the dentist he informed me because of my health issues and my body not able to fight “normal” bacteria because I am immunocompromised and my own body is attacking its self! I am losing the top front teeth, I wear a pink guard to help keep my teeth in place and for them not to move! Anything would help at this point! God Bless you!

Raynauds is the lack of blood flow to finger tips, they turn white, numb and ulcers develop. Scleroderma is the tightening of skin and causes stiffness, tightening of the skin, lungs, heart, mouth, and intestines.
