Not sure if anyone reading this has this disease. But I want to find a support group online for AS.
This week I finally got an official diagnosis from a rheumatologist!
This has been after YEARS of various doctors putting on my chart the equivalent of being a hypochondriac! "Somatic Symptom Disorder" ...
This comes only after my younger brother had his diagnosis earlier this year. So my primary doctor got me to a rheumatologist who did specific tests that she knew to perform.
I have ankylosing spondylitis AND Fibromyalgia. They took off that wrong diagnosis from my medical record! YIPPIE!!! Now I can get the right treatment
