Hey I have AS, I have mitigated a lot of pain mentally and physically through meditation, yoga and being present. Being present, in the now, seems to be the most critical aspect of all this. I am working on increasing my mobility and straightening my spine. Progress is slow but it seems to be getting better. I have also rejected immune suppression methods. If you or anyone with AS would like to talk about anything or how I use meditation and yoga to combat this disease, feel free to message me.

My question to you is: when did you develope this condition? I had a severe AS attack when I was 15 years old, I was paralysed in hospital for 2 weeks. I'm now 23 and still living. Life is beautiful, enjoy it.

Awesome, will definitely stay in touch. Interesting that you think your right eye incident started this. Could you tell me more about this incident. For me I think what triggered this AS attack was more psychological and also sitting down a lot in a bad posture. For me, it was also due to the mindset I was in. I believe this disease is as much of the mind as it is of the body. Changing my state of mind has helped me change my posture, this change in state of mind has come through meditation and being present.
