A.S. Face 0504: Rachel Sauerbier
My name is Rachel Sauerbier and I am 31 years old. I currently live in Pullman, WA . I was diagnosed with Ankylosing Spondylitis when I was 27. As most of the people here know, the diagnosis did bring piece of mind, but AS still continues to be a struggle. I have moderate damage to my SI joints, my lower lumbar joints, my knuckles in my hands and the joints in my feet. Though flare-ups can be painful and annoying, through a combination of infusion therapy and physical therapy, I am able to live life to its fullest. AS can be a struggle, but it doesn’t have to be a life sentence.
