Hi inkyfingers from Australia,
Thank you for replying. I am hoping I am the "mostly NS dieter" because it does sound hard to avoid it all the time. I had a bad flare up when I signed up this week and I sent away for the book and cut out bread right away. Last night I could sleep on my side, which is big for me, and instead of grasping for the wall I swung my legs out and stood up this morning....you know like normal people. AS is a funny desease(not ha ha funny), you never know if your pain is related to something you did like a roller coaster ride, something you ate, or stress(or something that's not even on your radar screen). I will have to invest in some iodine, it's time to be weird in public again ha ha.
Thank you Hugs Nette
