Hello all!! I have lurking for a while now and decided to finally post>>I was finally dx with AS by my rhuemy at the u of m this last spring after the merry go round of doc's and such. I am still learning about this but have been having problems for years without putting it all together.
You all seem to be very supportive and active. I go to another site and not much happens, they are very nice but I can only go on once a week or so because it doesn't move that fast.
Anyway hello all, looking forward to all your words of wisdom.

Hi Angie,... and Welcome to KA!

Nice to hear the docs have finally gotten you off the merry-go-round and arrived at the proper dx. Sorry it's AS but at least now you're able to focus on finding the most suitable treatments that will be most apt to help you!

Yep, you've found an active bunch to hang out with here!!!
Glad you decided to join in the fun.

Welcome Angie,

See you found the little icons already, fun, eh?

Bet you have words of wisdom you'd like to share with us too. Not sure who it was that gave me the best advice since I've signed on but it went something like this. Don't worry about the things you can't do, focus on the things that you can. How's that for a little pearl?

best
