Alex Janiga
My name is Alex Janiga. I live in Portage, IN. I am 19 years old and just recently got diagnosed with AS. It’s very hard to be young and have a chronic illness, but I still plan on making my dreams come true one step at a time. I am a face of AS, but I will not let it define me!

Dear Alex,
Thank you so much for sharing your story with us.

Hi Alex
I have had AS since age 19 – I have changed my arthritis since age 27 through diet. Have been wheat and corn free for over 20 years – some ribs a bit lumpy and back stiff in places but no meds anymore.
