5.0 out of 5 stars A must read for scleroderma patients, Dec 14 2004

By Caren Berg - Published on Amazon.com

This review is from: The First Year Scleroderma: An Essential Guide for the Newly Diagnosed (Paperback)

This is a wonderful book! As a newly diagnosed patient, I have found this book to be the best book I have read on scleroderma. Not only is it the most comprehensive, but it is extremely well organized and easy to read. The information and guidance the author provides is both practical and uplifting. I was so impressed with this book, I even bought a copy for my doctor!

I highly recommend this book for anyone with scleroderma, regardless of how long they have been living with the disease.
