I suffer from obstructive sleep apnea, spinal cord bleed, morphea and Achilles tendonitis. Married 29 yrs and 3 grown up kids.
I’m on here looking for fellow sufferers, my main concern at the moment is if there are any morphea sufferers who have heard of systemic scleroderma.

Hi @Chutchy_50 - Welcome to the community. Thank you for joining & saying a little about yourself. I don't suffer your disorders, but have tried to look into it. My limited understanding is that morphea is more a localized scleroderma 'just' affecting the skin.I'm hoping the following may be helpful, but if you're already under a scleroderma specialist or dermatologist, then please be advised my them, & your GP should always be there to help & advise also. Please see: https://www.sruk.co.uk/scleroderma/& from the same website: https://www.sruk.co.uk/scleroderma/what-scleroderma/scleroderma-morphea/

Hi @Chutchy_50 and welcome to the community! I am aware of systemic Scleroderma, I have Raynaud's disease and I know they can be linked to one another. How are you doing today?Disability Gamechanger - 2019

Hi, sorry for late reply. Today is a good day not a great day but okily as I call it, my sleep apnea is still trying to control me, add morphea and a spinal bleed it gets you down hence anxiety and depression ?. I joined this group to find fellow sufferers of some of my conditions, I've yet to find a twin.

Hi @Chutchy_50, great to have you here.
I'm glad today has been okay, it sounds like you have a lot going on at the moment. Please do have a look around and feel free to get involved with discussions.
If you want something more laid back then the coffee lounge is always a good place to start.Scope
