Is it easy to find a partner and/or maintain relationship when you have Scleroderma?
People with experience in Scleroderma give their opinion on whether it is easy or not to have a partner or to maintain a realationship when you are diagnosed of Scleroderma. What are the possible difficulties in having a relationship?
I think finding a partner to share your life normally is a challenge and to have to do it when living with a rare chronic illness like Scleroderma it can be hard and a lot of times it too much for ppl to Handel.

There is no single answer to finding a partner or maintaining a relationship for those with Scleroderma. For some, it won't make a difference but for some, it might make a difference to being a partner to someone who may face expensive medical treatments or medications in the future. It is said, "love conquers all," however, it is best to let a partner know if you already have Scleroderma because to use another cliche, "Honesty is the best polity!" Be honest and if someone wants to be your partner, it won't matter. My husband learned, with me, what was going on with my health and is still with me, sixteen years later. We've been through health issues together.
