CREST or GI Motility (Neurological) Problems-Maybe Both

Hummerlady555

I do have a gastroenterologist, neurologist and rheumatologist but they don't work together on my case. I have medication for GI motility. My fingers do swell but I thought that was due to Raynaud's Syndrome. I didnt'
know it was from CREST. Bummer. I have a Peg Tube in case I can't swallow. I use it sometimes. I hate it but have lived with it for about 10 years.

I'm not sure I am posting my anwsers correctly. Sorry group.
