LIVING WITH PH

Patients

Receiving a diagnosis of pulmonary hypertension can be life-changing. Once the initial shock of having a disease that most have never heard of fades, patients are left with the reality of living with PH.

Although significant changes in lifestyle are often necessary to accommodate PH, most patients continue to lead happy and fulfilling lives. Many patients continue to work, and some choose to travel. PH patients continue to raise their families and contribute to their communities, finding ways to make day-to-day tasks a little easier.

Connections Magazine

Published twice a year (Spring/Fall) in both English and French, Connections brings together the Canadian PH community to inform, support, and celebrate one another. Filled with community news and stories, research and treatment updates, interviews with PH medical professionals, and more, Connections is a valuable resource that PHA Canada is committed to making widely available to the PH community.

Connect with Others

Pulmonary hypertension can be an isolating illness, but you don’t have to face it alone. As a PH patient, connecting with others is a great way to gain support from people who understand what it means to live with pulmonary hypertension and can relate to what you’re going through.
