| Audley: Mother of Linear Morphea (en coup de sabre) Patient | ||||
| My motherly intuition told me that the diagnosis was not correct. | ||||
After one diagnosis of Vitiligo, my motherly intuition told me that the diagnosis was not correct so we made appointments with two more doctors who confirmed the Morphea diagnosis. (One did a biopsy.) We found a doctor in Birmingham, Alabama, Dr. Craig Elmets, who specializes in Scleroderma, and he used a UVA 1 light on Diana's lesions for approximately six months. She has shown no signs of the disease progressing. She is a very happy and beautiful girl and covers her scar with Dermablend. Since the one scar on her forehead is en coup de sabre, it is indented so her skin is uneven there. She deals with it wonderfully. The area on her scalp is right at her "part-line" and because she has lost hair in that area, she parts her hair on the opposite side and it looks fine. If you need information on the doctor who treated her, feel free to contact me via e-mail at audloe@aol.com God bless you all! | ||||
