Episode 490 - Maria Morais

Maria Morias, a registered nurse from Canada, shares her journey of managing multiple autoimmune diseases, including her recent diagnosis of pulmonary arterial hypertension. Previously dealing with scleroderma, Raynaud's phenomenon, and a rare liver disease leading to a liver transplant, Maria's ongoing symptoms of shortness of breath were eventually linked to pulmonary hypertension. Her story reflects on the psychological impact of chronic illness and the empowerment gained from community support and self-advocacy.
