Hello AS friends,

I've been feeling a bit alone with the self-isolation, so I thought i'd start this discussion for us to talk about AS and the coronavirus and how we're feeling.

I'm still doing my injections and self-isolating. It's getting a bit boring, but I've done a nice clean out and have finally finished a view books I've been meaning to get to. I've been doing home delivery when I can get a slot and my family members have been dropping off shopping too when they can. My cousin is a nurse so I'm a bit worried about her on the front lines, but she's helping to keep us all safe so I'm proud of her.

How are you all? Are you all in for 12 weeks too? Have you heard from your GP or the NHS like me?

@Courtney_J Hi Courtney, I had a big flare towards the end of lockdown, it was truly unbearable. I'm doing better now and I've since been to see my doctor. I still stay at home as much as possible and wear a mask everywhere when I do go out. I'm not sure my life really ever will go back to normal. But I take things as they come. 

Hope all are well!
