Dr Micah Yu’s Story
How I Managed My Conditions

I woke up one day with severe joint pain and was diagnosed with gout. However, my joint pain transformed over the years and I was eventually diagnosed with spondyloarthritis as well. Because of my own diseases, I decided to go into a career of Rheumatology to help patients going through similar problems that I have. From one joint to multiple joints, I thought I was going to be disabled by my 30s.
