Hi Krista,

I must have missed your other post. I just read it. It didn't sound grumpy to me at all.

In fact, I like the part where you said:

"We really didn't know what was going on at the time, I went back to the doc (ortho) two weeks later with STILL the same pain (SIJ) and said very bluntly....I appreciate you filling my tires with air and changing the oil...but the dam check engine light is still on."

That was great! I want to use that line on my rheumy.... (he needs to woken up every now and then lol)

There will be times where your AS gets better, then sometimes worse, then sometimes better, etc. It's not always going to be in full force like it is now. Once you get started on the right treatment, you'll start seeing plenty more of those better times. yes

Take care,
James
