For those of you who remember me here is an update.
I have lost a total of 48lbs on a LSD and I am working out like there is nothing wrong with me. I'm currently playing hockey again,weight lifting,jogging and circuit training. Remicade is a miracle drug and along with my consistent PROPER diet I feel like a new man. I have energy to spare and my sitting heart rate is considered very athletic. 52 bpm....Not to shabby eh?? I have no further damage to my spine and my pain levels are tapering off to a bearable level. My rheumy is shocked at my progress and has no doubt that along with Remicade my persiverance has helped to overcome what I thought was the end of my active lifestyle. I really believe that my consistent exercise has helped with pain and stiffness and my diet has helped also. I hope everyone here at KA especially those newly diagnosed can get some inspiration from my amazing transformation. Good Luck and its great to be back at KA.....
