Ankylosing Spondylitis
"I was diagnosed with Ankylosing spondilitis 8 months ago at the age of 49 although I had back pain and sacroiliac joint pain for many years which seemed to be getting worse and worse. 

I started getting inflammation in my eyes about 10 years ago. (uveitis) On my orthamogist&#039;s advice, I saw a reumatologist and even though white lines appeared on my SI joints on MRI scans she was unhelpful. 

I got worse and kept self medicating. After more bouts of uveitis I went to see the reumatologist again who tested me for the HLA gene. When it came back negative, she dismissed me again until 3 years later I could no longer walk even though I had been swimming and doing Pilates. 

Humira has given me my life back after 4 months. My mobility is back."
