ing 3 comorbidities (n=2). Fatigue was the most frequently experienced symptom (n=41; 55%) (Table), followed by pain (n=24; 32%) and itch (n=16; 22%). Forty-six patients experienced at least 1 of the 3 symptoms (62%), while 27 patients reported at least 1 severe symptom (VAS 50 mm) (36%). Most patients with generalized morphea (n=15; 94%) and eosinophilic fasciitis (n=9; 75%) reported fatigue. Pain and itch were experienced most often by patients with eosinophilic fasciitis. Fatigue, itch, and pain were significantly related to a lower disease-related quality of life (r=0.62, r=0.44, and r=0.43, respectively) (P .01). Fatigue and pain, but not itch, were significantly associated with greater selfreported disease severity (r=0.39 and r=0.37, respectively) (P .01). Fatigue was significantly related to a shorter duration since diagnosis of the sclerotic disease (r=0.27) (P .05).
