Connected: Mixed Connective Tissue Disease (MCTD) Living Stories

Inside this volume

Fifty people recount the experience of living with MCTD: the long path to a name for overlapping symptoms, the management of Raynaud's phenomenon, joint involvement, pulmonary complications, and fatigue, and the daily negotiation between what the body asks for and what life requires. The range of illness trajectories is reflected across the collection.

Who it's for

For those navigating a MCTD diagnosis, their families and caregivers, and anyone who wants to understand this condition through the people who live it rather than through clinical categories alone.
