Which are the symptoms of Mixed Connective Tissue Disease (MCTD)?

Renaulds, muscle pain, absolute worst is pulmonary arterial hypertension

My most bothersome symptoms are the painful joints and hands. My shoulders, elbows, hips, knees are the worst. Also the extreme fatigue and breathing problems.

So many symptoms. I have Systemic Lupus and Fibromyalgia. Mostly muscle pain for me. Tingling all over my body. And it’s very painful. Muscle twitching and fatigue are constant for me. Those symptoms never go away. And brain fog. I do have some visual disturbances as well, I have black and clear floaters in my vision and bright white sparks.

Raynauds, joint pain, edema, swelling, chronic pain, chronic fatigue, hair loss, sun sensitivity, muscle pain, muscle weakness,rashes, dry eyes, dry mouth, dry skin, stiffness, limited mobility

I think Polymyositis is most limiting because it weakens your muscles, heart included. You will have chronic fatigue. The little things that don't take much effort will take more effort. Especially for me because I figured I could get on meds and start doing hair again. That wasn't going to happen. I divide my chores and anything I have to do so that I'm not just completely down. I try to use 8-10lb weights to strengthen my muscles. Sometimes I go to rehab maybe 2 times a year. Scleroderma is definitely the one I would get rid of because it will harden your tissues and organs. I caught this disease in time because my hands and toes had started scabbing over. I could've been given a death sentence if my organs had started to harden first.
