Hello everyone, my name is Robert and I have DD both hands and LD one foot. Just a little about myself then I have some questions for all you veterens out there. I developed LD about 10 years ago. The nodule on my foot doesn't bother me too much and has stayed pretty much the same. Both hands have somewhat large nodules that started 7 or 8 months ago. I have just started to see two cords, one on each hand. I am scheduled for general doctors apt to confirm and so I can go the next doctor for actual treatment. I currently do not have contracture. First question, can RT (radiotherapy) help my condition although my nodules are pretty large. I've read that only small nodules early are done for RT. I understand there are no cures but I am looking for the best way to slow down my condition. I am definitely one of the unfortunate ones to have Diathesis; therefore I am looking what is best now in my somewhat early stages. Second, my nodule on my foot...should I have that RTed or should I just leave it alone as it hasn't gotten any worse of the years. I don't want to wake this up. Any help would be greatly appreciated thanks
