Bernie Siegel is God!
Do you know who Bernie Siegel is? He's a great cancer surgeon who got tired of watching people die and started questioning modern medicine. He has some great books out. I heard an interview on the radio with him on Friday and he said (I'm paraphrasing): "The way to avoid getting killed by our medical system is to be a pain in the ass. Buck the system. Make them know who you are, not just a number or a disease. That is survivor behavior." That is what I teach to my sclero friends. I really hope this helps you somehow.

How I Bucked the System...
After my daughter's May 24, 2006 diagnosis of systemic sclerosis (Scleroderma) I did hundreds of hours of searching on the internet. Through my searches I found information on the Antibiotic Protocol (AP), I bought the book, Scleroderma, The Proven Therapy That Can Save Your Life, by Henry Scammell, about the use of AP for treatment of Scleroderma, read it that night and the next morning scheduled an appointment with the doctor at Harvard that did the study. All of my daughter's local doctors "fired" us for pursueing this treatment option. She saw the Harvard doctor on July 5th, started the AP that day and all of her rapidly advancing symptoms were completely gone in three weeks. Now it doesn't usually work quite that fast, but it does usually work, expecially if you start the treatment early in the progression of the disease. She is going on nine weeks now and is completely fine, no side effects, no down turns, just fine.
Look into every treatment out there, decide for yourself what makes since to your, then find a doctor to support you in YOUR decision, it is your life, it should be YOUR decision.
