Story about Ankylosing Spondylitis .

Fighting back problems since '95, but not diagnosed until '14

May 24, 2017

By: John


I've fought back pain since graduating college back in '95.  I worked in the furniture department of an office supply store and thought I just messed it up there.  For years, I was told it was a strained muscle.  Regardless of what it was, I didn't take care of it properly...stayed in the industry too long, didn't stretch like I should have, etc.  I tried muscle relaxers, chiropractors, etc.  Finally, in '14, I went to a spine specialist who ran bloodwork and diagnosed me with AS.
