Constant Hunger Even After Having A Balanced Meal, Have History Of Diffuse Scleroderma. What Does This Indicate?

I've had defuse scleroderma for 9 years. In the past 4 months I feel hungry a lot. This especially happens an hour after I have eaten a well balanced meal. I have seen a nutritionist and stay clear of all the foods recommended for patience with the above diagnosis. I am followed regularly by GI but haven't spoken to him about this yet. I am scheduled for my annual colonoscopy next month. But right now I am starving. WHY?

hello there!
Thank you for asking, The feeling of hunger is itself a trouble and i believe it has nothing to do with your scleroderma except for one long shot of this scleroderma transformation into some malignancy but odds of that are less.
So this feeling of hunger needs a psychiatric evaluation if the Systemic disease specialists and pulmonologists rheumatologist and gastro enterologists clears their saying about your condition.

Good Luck
