Hey Luigi,
Hadn't noticed you on this board. Wow isn't it great to find a therapy that works. Strange thing is this therapy is working for about a hundred years, scientific articles are published about it but still these places are normally only visited by a bunch of elderly middle-europeans. I can understand though that really young AS patients are a bit reluctant to receive radioactivity - even in a very small dosis. Didn't I tell you by the way at belated Christmas a year ago that I had been there too? The same hotel also Radium palace only i did the spa for a day to try out, not the real works. I was on holiday so i hoped they also had shorter treatments but no. Besides my girl friend at the time was spooked by the place, these big nurses with even bigger injection needles. It was about fifteen years ago so things will have changed and there are nice things to see too in the neighbourhood and the hotel definetely had character but i still feel a bit for Pat a bit being there all those weeks healthy as she is. But well it seems worth it doesn't it. It is great to hear that you seem to have found a solution and a pretty good one too.
Best Wishes to you and Patty from me and Alex
