Oh, thats ok Deborah. Its nothing to do with you. I've been in a little bit of a funk this last little bit, as this year has been the worse year for my AS yet. I'm sure there are many on these boards who know of the pain and depression that can set in when you have a particularly bad time with your condition....so I wont go on more about that ;)

I'm just trying to find any options that will give me a bit of relief. I'm still pretty young, and am usually a very active person. This fall, I had to quit competitive sport due to my condition, and have had to take time off working too! I guess I've never really experienced my AS as much as this year...so its been tough.

This site has been helpful though...helps the spirits to have compassionate people who know "what you're going through".

I'm keeping my head up as best as I can :)
