I am twenty-four years old, I live in Colombia. I was diagnosed with morphea since I was fourteen years old.
I was in treatment for almost nine years, but I did not get better, and the illness kept on progressing. A few months ago I began a special treatment with UVA 1 photo therapy and my condition has improved considerably.
