Ankylosing Spondylitis: Living With It — Episode 1, The Diagnosis and the Reality

In this first episode of Ankylosing Spondylitis: Living With It, Christopher M. Michaud shares his personal journey living with the condition since his diagnosis in 2006.

From the first symptoms and the shock of hearing the diagnosis, to the daily realities of pain, mobility changes, food triggers, flare-ups, and adapting to a body that doesn’t always cooperate, this episode sets the foundation for an honest, ongoing conversation about what life with ankylosing spondylitis actually looks like.

This podcast isn’t clinical and it isn’t theoretical. It’s real-life experience, shared week by week, with the goal of helping others feel less alone, more informed, and more prepared to manage the condition day to day.

New episodes will explore routines, setbacks, food, mindset, mobility, and the practical adjustments that make living with ankylosing spondylitis more manageable.

Join the conversation in the official companion Facebook group, where updates, discussions, and shared experiences continue between episodes.
