Scleroderma 101: An Overview
Receiving a diagnosis of scleroderma can certainly
be a confusing and anxiety-provoking experience. What
is scleroderma? What are the different types of scleroderma?
What can I expect now that I have been diagnosed? These
are just a few of the questions you may have. The goal
of this workshop is to take the confusion out of the
diagnosis by providing a comprehensive overview of scleroderma,
the complications associated with scleroderma, and current
therapies. This workshop will allow you to become a
more effective partner in your care by providing a strong
base of knowledge.
