Aww Julz... You really deserve an award for being such an awesome wife/gf to your man. He is very lucky to have someone who cares so much about him and his health. You guys are really in a tough situation - you really need a doctor who will listen, help treat his AS and depression, and follow-up. Getting the pain under control would be a good start - has he even tried anti-inflammatories? Like Aleve? They're not a long term solution, but it might be something to start with. What about seeing a physical therapist? I wish you guys were getting better help from his doctor. And it's terrible that this is taking such a toll on you too. Keep talking to people and trying to get him to see someone else that can help. You're doing an awesome job, just keep it up. Someone's got to be able to help him. Lots of hugs to you...
