Hi Mandy, I just recently had a colonoscopy and I was terrified! It was NO big deal at all! They put me "under" and the worst part was drinking the drink the...
It's hard to say for sure, but the biologics are, so far, the only meds that have been shown to slow, and in some cases, halt the progression of AS. I wish...

Does anyone know for sure if these drugs like Humira actually help you to not fuse? Do they help with the pain? What do they actually do? My Dad wasn't given...
you know I thought it was so hard waiting for them to "definately" diagnose me with AS. It just seemed like they didn't believe me. When my rheumatologist told...
Since I know the doctor plans on putting me on Humira after my colonoscopy to check into my Crohn's disease (I'm freaked out about that test!) I was wondering...
Gail, I know how frustrated you must be. YoYo-ing diagnoses, back and forth, yes you are, no you're not ... Perhaps using the new genetic markers (ARTS1 and...

Maggie, when you mentioned not being able to open your mouth completely, it triggered a memory of the horrible jaw problems I had in my early 20's. That was...
Hi Denise~ Yes, I have intermittent jaw pain. Sometimes it will be bothersome for several months at a time, and at others as little as a week. In between...
