Betty,

I'm glad to hear that you're doing great!! I have been up till now, but it seems I've hit a plateau. It's been 7 weeks for me. I'm still a little bit stiff in the mornings, and the weather really affects me. But I did Walmart yesterday, without my wheelchair. I'm still having a lot of low back pain and some joint pain, but I can walk now, so I have to say that it's been an improvement. I'm assuming that my pain is caused by mechanical damage. Enbrel won't cure AS, only stop it in its tracks. I'm still having problems with short term memory and spelling. I know this may sound stupid, but it was a good trade. Now I have an excuse to be this way. I may not know much, but I feel good.

Hugs,

Cindy
