Is memory loss associated with scleroderma?

Question  I believe my scleroderma is diffuse, but the question is the same for either form.......is memory loss associated with scleroderma?  I'm having an increasingly difficult time with memory - both short-term and long-term.
 
Answer  The brain is not affected by scleroderma and so other causes of memory loss should not be ruled out.  Depression and stress which is common in scleroderma may be a cause of memory loss.
