This is my story of being diagnosed with ankylosing spondylitis. This by no means is medical advice or information, just my story on what happened to me. I hope this helps enlighten you on what the past year has looked like for me, or helps you if you were in a similar situation! If you would like me to go into further detail about my treatment plan or how this has affected my dance career be sure to let me know down in the comments below!
