Hi,

I just wanted to say hello.

I am 32 and was diagnosed in my early 20's. I have only recently come across this sight and think its really great to be able to talk to people in the same situation.

Thanks

Nicola

Welcome, Nicola. Dan is a little understated when he says you might enjoy this site. You're gonna LOVE this place!

I'm glad you finally found us. I was only diagnosed a year and a half ago, but we think that I've been showing symptoms since my early/mid 20s - maybe earlier, but definitely that far back. KA has been a source of sanity, laughter and knowledge for me - not to mention a life saver! These people are the best, bar none.

Hugs,

Kat

Hi Nicola,

Welcome to the best AS site around. I was just diagnosed Dec 2002 but am sure I have had it for about 20 yrs as well. You will find lots of info, support and answers to just about any question you can think of. Glad to know you.

Hello Nicola


I don't come her because of my AS. I go to the gym for my AS. Then I go to my massage therapist for my AS. Then I pretend to play golf to combat my AS.

Finally I self medicate and do a feeble effort at LSD( not what you're thinking) for my AS. I come here 'cause there a lots of very clever folks with an appetite for knowledge at the end of the day when I'm too tired to move off my AS.

Oh OK I may have AS. So that's a part of it too.

Hi Nicola,

Welcome to KickAS. Youv'e found a great place for information and support of all things AS (and alot of stuff which isn't)

Nice to see another Brit arrive as well - stick around, It kind of gets addictive.

Cheers
Jo
