Hello and welcome. This is the place to get started connecting with others who have or are going through a similar journey with scleroderma. When were you or your loved one diagnosed? Do you have any good tips for others? Are you looking for help? Let us know with a REPLY.

I posted details in the forum for newly diagnosed, but the short answer for here – I was officially diagnosed a month ago, still undergoing tests with the rheumotologist. All too new still for me to have tips, other than how important it is to stay present, not think about future days, months or years, just what I have today. I have learned a LOT thanks to the Scleroderma Foundation’s self management resources, but living in eastern Idaho I feel pretty isolated so am looking for connections with others so I feel less alone in this journey.
