Sorry, there was so much to this that I better stop here, it's too long and you don't need to hear this stuff.



Speaking for all the AS'ers, we DO need to hear all of it. I've been surfing so long and have been to many forums on the net. Kickas has an unbelievable compassion response, so keep on posting and tell us everything(except your credit card number) if you think it might help you or someone else. But don't feel pressured.
BTW- with your physio background, you're an asset to KickAS.

Sometimes I think my body is an inflammation nation.

AS for 20 years
HLAb27+, i think there was talk a negative result at later date, but never confirmed.
Have been on many different anti- inflammatory drugs (naproxen to arthrotec to vimovo). Now off all prescription meds except occasional advil or tylenol.
Don't underestimate the power of icing (I bought the biggest ice pack i could find and it is good at numbing pain).
