    I've had AS since I was 18 years old. I'm 58 now, and I can tell I've gone through a lot of pain over the years. My spine is mostly fused now but I still have problems in my neck. I've added diabetes and some heart problems to the mix, and have come to the point that I think I would like to retire. Has anyone been able to get social security disability from this disease?

    Has anyone applied for Social Security? I am still pretty young but I have 3 chronic pain diseases and my good to bad day ratio is about 1:1.

    Does anyone have information on Social Security benefits or disability? Are those with AS eligible? I still work but have reduced hours- how long do you have to be diagnosed, how bad etc? What about financial aide for medical bills? Any tips?
