Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH for short) is a serious condition characterised by high blood pressure in the arteries of the lungs, also known as the pulmonary arteries.
PAH can affect all aspects of daily life – from mental health to career decisions. It is important to be informed and have the right support.
A PAH diagnosis can be daunting, but it is important to remember you are not alone, there are many places to go for support.
