Painful Days

I was diagnosed with Ankylosing Spondylitis at age 42.

I have good days and bad days.

I was waking up daily unable to get right out of bed.

Better sleep in my recliner

I would get muscle spasms and sharp stabbing pains so bad.

I have come to realize physical therapy and sleeping in my recliner was much better than sleeping in my bed.

I have pain every day but I can get up on my own much easier from the chair rather than a bed.
