With scleroderma many patients use Nexium or a similar drug for GERD. Are you using this?
Severe itching can be due to many things. Reactions to drugs,
gall bladder/liver disease, allergies, eczema, etc.
If you list your drugs here (or PM me for privacy) I'll check them out for you. Drug nutrient depletions are a big cause of side effects.
Also, gluten intolerance does cause skin problems, and I'd check to see if you have that too. It will cause neuropathies too.

The Gluten File website has alot of information that may be useful to you.
