Did you know that Myositis is inflammation or swelling of the muscle tissue? Did you know that scleroderma is the most common overlapping disease with myositis? These two conditions can present together, further highlighting the need for understanding, support, and research.

Join us this month in spreading awareness, sharing information, and supporting those living with myositis and scleroderma.

This Mental Health Week, we’re thinking about the impact social isolation can have on mental health and well-being—especially for people living with scleroderma.

When symptoms are unpredictable and “invisible” challenges can make everyday life harder, connection can feel difficult to maintain. Over time, isolation can increase stress, affect mood, and make it harder to feel supported.

You’re not alone. At Scleroderma Atlantic, we’re here to help you stay connected—through community, resources, and support. 💙

Great news for NL!

🎉 Big News for the PH Community! 🎉

Newfoundland and Labrador has officially listed sotatercept — another important step forward for people living with PAH 💜

That means we’re now down to 4 provinces to go: AB, SK, PEI, and NB.

With World PH Day on May 5 just around the corner, now is the time to get ready to take action. Together, we’ll push to ensure access for all Canadians — no matter where they live.
