Story about Ankylosing Spondylitis .

Long time

May 17, 2017

By: Katie


Ive been told I was crazy for so many years, I can't even remember when it started. Despite being 36 and having 20 surgeries thus far starting at age 13. I believe it is more than fair to say I know my body well. Due to an issue with an esophagus surgery pain meds aren't something I can easily take. So not a drug seeker. Finally after having my hip fixed, and still having pain, my wonderful GI doctor sent me to a rheumatologist, who found I was HLA-B27 positive. I recently started Cimzia and am hoping for relief.
