PSC Online and Local Support Groups

Online support groups can literally be lifesavers. Offering information, comfort, community and support for PSCers and caregivers, we at PSC Partners consider these connections important allies in the fight against PSC. Whether newly diagnosed, pre- or post-transplant, or feeling all alone in the world, PSCers and caregivers can take advantage of these online networks to connect with others. Finding others who truly understand the successes and struggles of living a life with PSC, no matter where geography places us, is truly a gift we can give ourselves.

Sites are available to caregivers and patients alike and cover a variety of topics related to PSC. Whether you have questions or advice to share or are just looking for a place where you're not the "other," there are sites available to fulfill those needs.
