Happy I Have a Diagnosis
I was finally diagnosed at the age of 49 after suffering for many years.
Each year my symptoms would get worse until I was doing nothing but sleeping or sitting.
Treatment helped my symptoms and flares
My Dr. has me on sulfasalazine, which after 4 months lessened my symptoms and flare-ups considerably.
I can now walk for longer periods and do more around the house.
Glad to start getting my life back.
