I found something interesting about my dupuytren's and Lederhosen, I found out that it could be a decrease of androgens (male hormone) this is what the adrenals produce. I will find a natural dr. and do a hormone saliva test to see if I am low on Testosterone. In pub med they talked about women in post menopause that this could form because of the decreased androgens hey it did happen to me during menopause.

The Phoenix Lives, I am in WASHINGTON State as well and wonder if you would mind sharing the name of your talented podiatric surgeon. I have three nodules and a cord on my left foot and two nodules and a cord on my right foot. I have been getting cortisone shots in my nodules about every three months. It shrinks them a little and makes them a little less painful but they always grow back!! I also have Hashimotos and arthritis showing up in almost every joint bilaterally. Also if you have a good Rheumatologist.......that would be great too!

One more!

52-year-old marathon runner from Columbia, MO with

DC in right hand
Ledderhose nodules in both feet
knuckle pads in left hand
frozen left shoulder

and until today had no idea that they could all be related. Last time I checked, I have no symptoms of Peyronie's; otherwise, I seem to be collecting the whole set.

Hello, I have LD in my left foot. I know I was the youngest person ever to have this disease. Dont know if I still am, but I first got diagnosed with this when I was 7 years old. I had a lump the size of a pea in my foot. They thought it was a cyst and removed it. It wasnt until it returned a month later the size of a marble that they realised what it was. I am 46 now and it has recently started growing again. I also developed DP in both hands around 7 years ago, which is steadily getting worse.

Hi
I am a 53 year male, orginally from Bangladesh but living in the UK since 1972. I have DD on my left hand but no contracture yet for over 3 years and early signs on my right hand. I also have LD on both of my feet for about the same time. When the feet are not in use for a long time, they can be painful. I have been seen by a consultant hand specialist who suggested no treatment until it becomes unbearable.

Unfortunately, I have also suffered from frozen shoulders (both left and right) for over five years and now have restless leg syndrome. I would be interested to learn if there are correlation between these deseases.
