This booklet is part of a programme for people affected by Ankylosing Spondylitis (AN-kuh-low-sing sponduh-LIE-tis) or AS for short. You may be affected either by having the condition yourself or by knowing somebody who has. At the Ankylosing Spondylitis Association of Ireland (ASAI) we have produced this booklet to help you:

• Better understand your condition
• Talk with your doctor about your diagnosis and treatment
• Learn about possible treatments and useful tips for living with AS
