As a teenager/young adult I nearly lived on a diet of pasta, bread and pizza with heartburn and sore back/legs all the time, so no wonder I got AS.
I'll definitely get strict again now, especially since I'm supposed to be giving up my Salazopyrin soon to help start a family!
Thanks for your tips and help.

Hi John,
Great to hear that you have settled down a bit...
I don't think the sore back and legs whilst eating wheat *gave* you AS - it was a sign that you already had it and were feeding the monster!
I think I recall discussions here before about men wanting to start a family - I believe you can go dafely onto Salofalk instead of Sulfasalazine... maybe want to google it or ask in the Men's Forum, or ask your rheumy???
Good luck with becoming a dad - my kids have brought me many joys!
