A.S. Face 0932: Dale
Hello, my name is Dale, I’m 55 yrs old and was diagnosed with severe AS in 1976/77, I had many problems with my neck and back beginning around age 12, the doc said it was growing pains. The eventual diagnosis was a hard pill to swallow for a strong young man at age 18, it’s impossible to describe my feelings about how devastating this disease can be both physically and mentally, I believe you have to experience it – to know…
The new biological drugs didn’t come soon enough, my spine is completely fused, I also have the usual problems with my shoulders and hips as well as a 20 year battle with iritis -
All I can say is don’t abandon your dreams, if you give them up – it’s over…
