affects of methotrexate and predisone

[Guest guest]

My daughter is 8 and has localized scleroderma,she was diagnosed a year ago but

has had it for 2 years. Doctors at cleveland clinic have tried steroid creams,

uva therapy, and mtx. She has been on mtx for two months without any signs of it

helping, so the doctor wants to increase mtx and start a high dose of predisone.

I said no to predisone, so he referred us to a dermatologist at pittsburgh

childrens hospital his name is robert kress, so anyone ever herd of him? I guess

what my main question is does anyone know of any options other than predisone,

that isn't so harse? Your important would greatly be appreciated!!
