<<Disclaimer: Verify this information before applying it to your situation.>> <<<< My sister, who I think likely has CD as well as SjS as I do, has raised, smooth deposits of, apparently, calcium deposits on her knuckles. Her doctor also thinks she has some form of thyroid dysfunction. My previous post was not sufficient clear. I know that a number of autoimmune diseases are associated with CD. My question should have been, is anyone aware of a connection with the deposits on my sister hands to an autoimmune disease? Thanks so much. Sandra
